lol we just bought our bear canister yesterday. and i'm sure the #1 reason for it is those pesky masked creatures. we came upon one sitting on the side of the road driving around north of Long Beach a couple weeks ago, that looked like he was just waiting for a car to go by and stop and give him food (oops, that's exactly what we did-he was too cute)

    Hows the bug situation at the Gorge? Should I be super prepared with mad foggers and Bug Spray? i just yanked a couple of ticks off of me from my weekend festivities and my bug phobia is kicking in
    There did seem to be massive bee's last year though, which I've never remembered having a problem with before.

    Mine too!!!

    I'm not sure if we will make it as far north as eureka. But we shall see! A hot tub sounds divine!
    Since (my) Josh isn't coming along, he has asked me to stop at any mountain passes we go through and see if there are cool alpine/mountain plants. The little stuff in the cracks of rocks and whatnot.

    If by some lucky chance we make it to Washington in record time, do you want to make a side trip to Mt. St Helen's? I think it would be sweet to see! I think it's only 5 hrs from the gorge area.

When to get lined up for a good spot? Since I'm only 5'4'' am I gonna me screwed for seeing anything if I'm not railed??

    If your making a side trip I suggest Glacier National Park. It's only a couple hours out of the way and well worth it. Going to the Sun road is the most beautiful drive I have ever taken. Missoula, MT is a great little mountain town with plenty of places nearby to camp.

    I have to say I am jealous of all of you road-trippers that get a beautiful scenic vacation out of this trip. I have a 3 hour drive over the pass and it's pretty boring.
