Sept 4 Richland to Spokane to Cranbrook, BC

Spokane has a great riverfront park, with a giant red wagon and a goat that really sucks... Trash!



You push a button on the brick wall and a vacuum cleaner starts, then you put a piece of paper by the goat's mouth and it gets sucked into a waste receptacle.


Cranbrook BC kinda sucked... Not sure why but we just didn't like it.

September 3 2014 - Klamath Falls to Richland, Washington

On the road at 9:10
Finally made it to Deschutes Brewery Pub in downtown Bend at 12:15, after getting lost (again) and going to the brewery first.   
Food and beer were just as good as last time.
Berry cobbler...mmmmm

September 2 2014 Home to Klamath Falls

Passed through Redding and took a quick look at the Sundial Bridge, but it was too hot to get out of the car.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundial_Bridge_at_Turtle_Bay

It was very smoky due to a fire in the Klamath forest.  The whole north valley had nasty air.

We have a favorite webcam at Mt. Shasta, but no desire to go looking for it, so we pulled  this photo from the web the next day

For a current view, check out this link The webcam at Shasta

Had a nice dinner at the Thai Orchid in Klamath Falls, a good night at HIE.

May 1 Troutdale to Astoria to Roseburg, Oregon

The webcam sits on top of the pole.

Sometimes it points to the estuary.

Sometimes it points upstream.


Sometimes it shows a view of the tower



Here is a link to the current view from the webcam.  It seems to be down quite a lot.  mAstoria Webpage

May 2 Roseburg to Tillamook to Fort Bragg

Drove to Tillamook, OK we've been there a few times, so we NEVER need to go there again! Holy Disneyland, Batman!  Bought a little cheese, and beat a hasty retreat!


On to Fort Bragg, dinner at North Coast Brewery, and of course some great beer!


And pie for dessert


Another cool Holiday Inn Express with a view overlooking the Hare Creek and a glimpse of the Pacific Ocean.
