The Search for Perch


Getting Sora sparked some creativity in the members of our household. People made her toys, and concocted a plan to make her an elaborate play structure. We decided on using driftwood and were going to assemble it into a tree shape for her to climb around on. One place we know of that's great for finding driftwood is our secret spot on the Washougal River. I've previously posted pics from picnics we've had on the rocky beach there. It was a nice day, perfect weather, so we set off. We stopped at another riverside area en-route but instead of finding wood, we just found a nice floating dock and photo op. Once we got to the right spot we remembered all the good wood was downriver and the only way to get over there without getting wet is to climb over a couple of downed trees and hike along side the water.




 Tressa ended up falling in once we had hiked to the area with the best wood... she always ends up falling in or falling down when we go hiking, it's now a tradition lol. We found so many awesome pieces, but had to limit ourselves because we had to hike back over the downed trees to the car with them. Tressa helped alot with that, she was already wet from falling in so she just stood in the water and we handed the wood to her and she passed it to Shaun on the other side.
