Well, we're back. Got in late Sunday night.
Flew from Grand Rapids to Seattle the previous Friday. Met my Sis and Bro-in-law in Minneapolis on the way.
Stayed in Seattle and visited relatives until Sunday Noon, then went to Scappoose, OR and visited other relatives for awhile. Then drove to Cannon Beach, OR for Sunday night. Then drove down the Oregon coast to Yachats, OR for Monday night. Saw whales out of the hotel windows, wandered on the beach a bunch, etc.
Tuesday to Albany Or for my nieces wedding. Back to Portland to visit more relatives Wednesday. Sis and her husband went back to Iowa Thurs AM, we headed back to the Oregon Coast. Started in Waldport, OR, stayed Thurs night in Brookings, OR, Friday night in Fort Bragg, CA, and Sunday night in San Francisco.
Highway 101 and 1 the entire way. First time my wife's ever seen a Redwood tree or been any farther south than Florence, OR.
She was a little disappointed with Fisherman's Warf, but really enjoyed the Redwoods and Coast.
Figure we drove a little over 1000 miles. Not bad at all, but was getting cramps in my brake leg on Highway 1 trying to make good time through some areas......:sifone:
Forgot how nice it is to have people pulll over for you to go by.....
