She’s growing up so fast – Age 4

Stub Stevens State Park
We have booked a site at Stub Stevens State Park for our motorhome. Our site (#71) has full hook-ups and is located in what is called Dairy Creek Camp East. We tried to get a site as close to the cabins as possible. At this time, there are only 5 of the 14 cabins remaining available.
You will need to book your reservation today if you are joining us. The dates are 3/27-3/29 (Fri-Sun.)
The cabins are new but, rustic. They are a single room and have heat, electricity, a futon, bunk beds (single on top and double on bottom, table and 4 chairs, picnic table and a fire pit. They are $39 per night.
The RV sites have full hook-ups, a fire pit, picnic table and usually room for a large tent. We have a tent that we can bring if someone wants to just stay in it. We will actually check in late Thursday night.
Danielle went to “University of Oregon” for the weekend to stay with her big sister.

If you frequent the Internet, you probably have spyware on your system. Fortunately, following a few simple rules will help you minimize spyware exposure:
•Don’t download “free” software, no matter how tempting. Free software is a common source of spyware.
•Don’t be fooled by pop-up dialog boxes or ads. The safest policy is to never select anything that pops up on your system, no matter how great the offer or dire the promised consequences of ignoring. To rid yourself of these pop-up boxes, only click the “X” in the window’s upper right corner. Never select a “Close window” or “Exit” button that appears inside the box.
• Delete unsolicited e-mail messages without opening attachments or clicking on links. Many system vulnerabilities need your input to execute.
•Don’t allow unfamiliar sites to install software (such as ActiveX* or Java* applications) on your system.
