Not much to report for the last couple of days as we have been travelling - covered around 700 miles from Washington State to Corning in California. Spent last night at Grant's Pass but started to rain in the morning so we high tailed it out of there. We stopped at Rolling Mills Casino with the intention of having a cheap place to stay - it is the dearest yet but as we were still about 130 miles north of Sacramento, we decided to call it a day & stay. Temperature is still in the 80's.
Luckily, we won some money and so it has turned out to be a cheap stop after all!
Leaving yesterday we went shopping and then hit Portland about 2.30pm - big mistake - the traffic was terrible trying to get out of the city for the long weekend - Labour weekend. We thought we had it bad until we saw an accident on the other side and counted the traffic riding their brakes for 15 miles, 3 lanes wide.....
On our way here we stopped at the Shasta Dam - spotted some dear and bald eagles. Cool.
Happy Fathers Day to both dads.
Love D & B xxx
PS: You guys must be really busy cause their is no comments coming thru.....
Happy Fathers Day! Are you feeling neglected? Libbys made you a card, and I even got Jaimee to write in it! Not long till home time. Are you sick of driving yet? Had a look at the map - huge distance that youve travelled!. Stay safe xxxx
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Fathers day wish & text, sick of driving still more to do, home in a week.
ReplyDeleteStill envious that you are holidaying and we are working. But on the up side. In a couple of weeks you will be working and we will be holidaying in the sunshine. Hope you had a happy fathers day Dad, sorry we did not phone you too busy pulling my house apart!!! We have had beautiful weather here the last week or so but very cold in our Portalodge at night (like living in a freezer). Will phone you before you head home to see how you both are. Safe travelling. Love Donna and Geoff xxx
