After finishing Knotts, we took a day to rest before we started our drive back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were a little motivated to get back because the Cherry Blossoms were blooming. We didn’t expect this – so we purchased the kids some clothes along the way so that we could take cute photos of them this year (and not have to make a 2-hour trip to get to and from our house). On the way home, we stopped in Salem and this was our view: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we drove on up to Portland and caught the Japanese blossoms there too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a great month. We were fortunate enough to work remotely which allowed this whole trip to be possible. I ended up taking just ONE day off (that was the day we went to Knotts).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We always keep an eye on Blazers tickets to see if they are cheap or not. Well, the Blazers had been tanking this season (after they traded away 1\/3rd of the team — meaning C.J. McCollum). What does that mean? Cheap tickets. Meaning? We attended another game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Win or lose, it is fun. Plus when you aren’t worried about the cost of the game (because it was a dollar or two for everyone to go to a professional event) you can spend more time walking the concourse and doing the kid’s stuff instead of sitting in your seat for the entirety of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, one of our neighbors is selling their house and this is a cool view their realtor took from a drone. You can see our house too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
