Visit Bend<\/a>. Twist my arm! The mercury is climbing and 80\u00b0<\/strong> sounds better by the minute.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re planning an adventure in the Northwest to visit our sons and their families, taste some new coffee<\/a>,\u00a0and deliver a crib Mike made for our grandbaby. This will be a family heirloom someday. What a treasure!<\/p>\n

We plan to check out new restaurants, galleries, the Farmer\u2019s Market<\/a> and the Deschutes River trails. We’ll photograph the landscape and imagine new copper and glass<\/a> designs.<\/p>\n

Everyone needs an adventure now and then, and ours seem to be few and far between. Sometimes venturing into the unknown can inspire new creativity. Challenge the senses. Cement values.<\/p>\n

Yep, that\u2019s what we\u2019re looking for, and it won\u2019t hurt to be cooler for a few days either.<\/p>\n
