There were frequent trips to visit family on the Southern Oregon coast for vacations and holidays, often where four generations would be gathered for dinner and celebrations. Growing up held times of camping in central Oregon and on the Rogue river, having fun with friends, picking berries and being annoyed by her little brother.
