Around this time each year, I really start to yearn for Central Oregon — let’s be honest, I’m always yearning for it — but it’s difficult to argue for which season is better in the area. During the summer, you have hiking, biking, running, and lots of sunshine. In the wintery months, you have snow, winter sports like skiing and snowboarding, and also sunshine. What I’m saying is: it’s the perfect location with something for everyone. By now, you’re aware of my fondness of Bend/Sunriver, and by now, if you haven’t taken the opportunity to visit– I’ll be extremely disappointed in you. Not really, but you owe it to yourself to make it out there. This was a pretty long winded way of opening the log post, which chronicles Hannah’s and my trek out there recently. We’ve found a small cabin that we love to rent during the winter months, it happens to be pretty cheap, very cozy, and in a location that is difficult to beat. It was a somewhat last minute trip, but we threw ourselves, our stuff, and Hudson in the car and headed to east over the Cascades to our favorite place on the planet.
