Sledding and The Wonderful Land of Oregon

Me: How do you like your clam chowder? Is it yummy?

Chloe & Ellie: Mmmm.

Me: Someday, Dad and I will take you to Oregon. It’s a really pretty place – with an ocean. So, since there’s an ocean, they eat lots of fish, and they love to make clam chowder. Yum.

Ellie: Is there a table?

Me: In Oregon? So you can eat your clam chowder? Yes, there’s a table.

Chloe: Is Oregon bigger than Ogden?

Me: Yep.

Chloe: Whoooaah. Can we catch fish there?

Ellie: Can we sit and catch a fish in our snow clothes?

Me: We'll probably go in the summer and sit in a boat and catch crabs in cages.

Chloe: Wow.

What a fortuitous post. I, too, was wondering if there were tables in Oregon. And now I know.

What's this thing you have with Oregon? I thought clam chowder came from Massachusetts.
Good sledding! Can't do that in Oregon.

Me thinks we should go to Oregon together! There has got to be enough room at the table.
Those are some cozy and cute sledders!

I beg to differ. Clam chowder should be eaten in sourdough bowls in San Francisco. You guys should totally come visit us instead.

It certainly sounds like a magical place, this "oregon" of which you speak.

Jared and I have actually been trying to plan a trip to Oregon to go crabbing with my parents!! The trip would be fantastic if we happen to see two little girls sitting in a boat at a table fishing with their snow clothes on!
