RAIN! Woke up to lots of rain. Thought about driving up to Lake Tahoe, or over to Yosemite, but the highway over the mountains from Yosemite was closed so we decided that Highway 1 along the coast had treated us well so far so we decided to continue on it. It was a wet, windy ...

Day 3 – Nehalem park to Oregon dunes Today was awesome! The 101 highway is a really amazing drive. Everyone has always told me the Oregon coast was a great drive but you really don’t believe it until you’ve done it. Lots of coastal pictures today but they will have to wait until tomorrow to ...

Day 1 – Vancouver to Portland

Day 1 – Vancouver to Portland

Garth and I drove down to Portland today – decided to skip Spokane and that part of the trip as the weather was really windy and rainy and unfortunately my friend Tanner isn’t feeling well so we decided to start heading south to the sunshine. We haven’t found it yet. The border crossing went well ...
