The best thing I did this summer was see my relatives, who came from Holland and France. I got to see people from different sides of my family basically every day. Also, my brother got home from a year in Turkey at the beginning of July, which was really nice. I got to go to different parts of Oregon too. We went to Black Butte, rafting on the Deschutes, backpacking, and the Oregon Islands on the southern part of the coast. It was probably one of the busiest summers I've had to date.
