This might be an idea for when you have more time. Take a ‘mailboat’ ride on the Rogue River in Oregon. There are several whitewater sections that are navigated on the river and trips go up to 100 miles in round trip.

This is the company I remember taking the ride from when I was much younger (during mid 1970’s).

Not the cheapest, but might be interesting and there is beautiful scenery along the way. When I went, they were using special boats, low draft when on plane (about 3″), 3 large Chrysler engines driving 3 Jacuzzi jet drives. I was able to sit/stand in the back with the driver and learned a lot about navigating the river from him.. but that was before all the sue-happy-lawyer types came into being. I would try to get the front right or left two seats in the front two rows as a preference.. or if not that, the seats along the sides (that is if you don’t mind possibly getting wet – bring raincoat/slicker). If you bring a camera, have some sort of water-resistant/proof container for it if you go on the whitewater sections.

Crater lake, Klamath river etc are not to far away either.

[quote=CardiffBaseball]Well some great ideas here, but she just announced she wants to jump out of a plane.

Enorah you are leaving Encinitas?

By the way Laguna Niguel is a very easy drive for me since I live right on I-5 in Cardiff-by-the-Freeway. I took the kids to see Rush up in Irvine and it was like 100 times better than going to Cricket Amphitheater in CV. I now know if a band is on the summer amphitheater trail I’ll be heading north.

yep

moving to Ojai at the end of the month

Off to the mountains

Enorah moves to Ojai!

Okay, I’m jealous. 😉

LOVE Ojai. They have some nice bike paths and hiking trails up there. Beautiful country, and really lovely downtown area.

Didn’t you own a house? Are you buying up there or renting? Do you plan to stay “permanently” or is it just for a short time? Lucky, lucky girl! 🙂

Agree about La Costa Spa. Nice place, and you can make a day or more out of it in the spa alone. I hear they are trying to gear things more toward the family thing, so supposedly they have a water park now, in case you want to stay at the resort for a couple of days.
