Wear a hat? Hehe. His feet are pretty small but it can be prickly. He likes to jump on my head all the time when we're outside so I try to wear a hat. Makes it easier on him, too, so he doesn't get tangled in my hair.
Off the beaten path stuff... hm. Most of the cool stuff to do outside of downtown proper (and even in downtown) involves hiking, which is probably just going to be really muddy. I'll see if I can come up with non-muddy things that don't require driving over the Cascades because I don't know if I have chains for my car anywhere and kind of don't want to mess with that. The desert side of the state is awesome though.
I think the current beach plan is to go to the north side of Cape Kiwanda, which is one of my favorite places anywhere ever. But it'll involve a lot of walking and could be kind of miserable if it's really wet and windy, so if that's the case we can probably stick to someplace more sheltered. We'll just have to see what the weather does. But Cape Kiwanda is basically this huge steep dune that juts out into the ocean and it's fun to climb and the view from the top is awesome and then sliding alllll the way back down is the best thing ever.
