A Great Place to Stay and Play
My husband and I have just returned from a 10-day vacation in Central Oregon. We stayed at Eagle Crest Resort, located just outside of Redmond and about 20 minutes from Bend. This part of the state is considered high desert, with less than 12 inches of precipitation annually and 300 days of sunshine. Don't let the term "desert" lead you to believe it's all sand and cactus, though. In fact, there are no cacti, but mixed forests of pine and juniper (some very old and fascinatingly gnarly) cover large areas, interspersed with sage and irrigated crop and grazing land.

Seeking Suggestions
As many of us prepare to head out on road trips and vacations for the holiday weekend, I’m also looking ahead to a mid-August trip I’m in the midst of planning. While we still wait to reschedule our honeymoon, my husband and I decided we’d like to take a long weekend trip to celebrate our first anniversary on Aug. 15.
A Touch of Spontaneity
Well, to be fair, I don’t know if I can call us spontaneous because it took us three days to make the decision, but it was spontaneous for us! My last blog was about my mini-moon to Cape May, New Jersey, in August. There’s more to come in a future blog about some of the great restaurants we enjoyed during our stay, but probably at least three to four of them wouldn’t have been experienced had it not been for that “spontaneous” decision.
