    Ah, liking the slightly warmer weather! Gotta love Oregon's changes - we have 4 seasons! So nice. Between work & school I haven't had much exercise time, but I found a Zumba class on Saturday mornings I'm trying to go to. I'm very excited - I miss my dancing!

    Tasha,
    Did you ever zumba?
  • totallytasha

    Yes, yes! I do love my Zumba. I've been doing hip hop as well, but I find that Zumba is a more consistent workout - constantly moving and not stopping to learn new things. Plus, if I give it my all, I find my side abs are sore the next day. I imagine a teeny tiny waistline...

    I'm not real good at dancing, but I love it! How about you?

    Has anyone here gone hiking around Oregon before. I love to hike. (Just a little worried:ohwell: about wild animals but I'm ok with it most of the time) If you do where do you go?

    Have you hiked Silver [Creek] Falls State Park? No wild animals to contend with there, and there are many fantastic waterfalls to see along the route. Great in the spring, when the water is flowing stronger.

    There's also a good hike in the North Fork of the Santiam River area (Opal Creek) .

    Otherwise, I'm in the PDX area, so we hike a lot in the Columbia River Gorge, or on Mt Hood.
