| Location Tahkenitch Creek Hike |
| Where: Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area |
| For a guy that likes to hike, taking three of his grandsons hiking is just about as good as it gets. I did have to kind of trick them into going along with the idea by saying that we would be going to a 'secret place'. The 'secret place' is a site that clicked in Jeanette and my minds a few weeks ago as the perfect destination to bring our grandsons to play in the water and the sand with only a short walk or hike. |

| climbing the dunes Tahkenitch Creek at this point is just the right size for youngsters and dogs to play in. |
