Tubing Trip to Mt. Hood

We have had a great weekend. First, we went to the monster truck show and then on Sunday my brother Matt and his family came over and stayed the night with us. Last year we went tubing down a hill right next to Mt. Hood, so we are making it a tradition to do the same thing every year. We got up early today and heading up Hwy 26. We sled for an hour and then came back down and Matt had set up the parking lot with all that amenities that we needed. We ate a great lunch and then half of the crew went back up the hill and sled for another hour. Thanks for coming Matt and Carda! Matt brought camping chairs, a stove, food and made life really nice at the parking lot where we went tubing.
