    I did a old clothes swap with my housemates so we did not have to go shopping again for a little party. It was nice because we reused clothes and did not buy anything we would wear only once.

    I donated some clothes that I do not wear anymore but are perfectly nice, it felt good to downsize and know someone else will want them.

    Went to Crater Lake, new place in Oregon to visit and be outside, very cold.

    Today I went on some new hikes in the McDonald Dunn forest, very beautiful and happy to explore some new places close to Corvallis. I even looked up the different species of mushrooms in the area with my boyfriend.
