Oregon Trip 2023 - Day 9: Hike Above Bastendorff Beach & Facerock Ice Cream

This day we woke up bright and early to a call from our neighbor Max who was watching Koda.  He was letting us know that Koda's back leg was hurt, and he wasn't putting any weight on it.  He was worried, and so were we.  

We decided to have him take Koda into the vet and have him looked at.  The vet ran many tests and found out that Koda had a tear in his knee.  

Koda is too old for surgery, so the vet prescribed meds and recommended we buy him a leg brace.

It was a very stressful morning, and we were worried about having to put him down.  But we felt better after finding out the problem and how to solve it.  We were very thankful to our sweet neighbor and his love for our sweet old Koda.  

After all the drama with Koda we were able to go on a hike up above Bastendorff.  We love going on this hike with the family because it's close, easy, super fun, and has lots of fun spots for taking pictures.  

After our hike we went back to the cottages to get ready to go out to lunch.  We decided to try a new to us pizza place in town.  It was decent food, and it was fun trying something new.  After we ate lunch, we then met up with Julie and Kevin's family at Facerock for some yummy ice cream.  We can't get enough of that stuff.  This is where Allie picked up her souvenir, a stuffed cow that she named Milkshake.
