Day 1

i'm not sure how well i'll be able to document everday because technically they seem to start to run together when I think of them. The pictures do help a lot though. So here's Day One. We started our day at 9 am from Deer Park, Washington, and our final destination for the day was to be somewhere on the coast just passed Portland, Oregon.

We thought we were going to eat here, but we decided to wait till we got to the Dalles

These are the Fall we had planned to visit just outside Portland, OR.

We've been talking about these falls for like 3 months now. They were gorgeous. It was a little bit of a hike/incline to get to them and i was wearing flip flops. Considering it was a rainy day, I decided it was easier to just take them off and walk bare-foot. It worked out well for me!

The day continued after the rainy falls into portland. We hit a bad down pour on the outskirts of Portland that made me a little nervous to drive in. Mainly other drivers, because I can't control their speed and inattentiveness. We made it Portland, OR where met up with Ommie Gonzales a good friend of ours from Alaska. He treated us to Pizza and we made our way to Lincoln City, OR, where we would rest for the night. When getting the hotel room Nicole forgot to ask the Indian lady for a room with two beds. Joy and I had come down with a terrible sickness so we were pretty wiped by the end of the evening. We weren't able to switch into a room with more beds, so Joy volunteered to sleep on the floor so she wouldn't keep us awake with her coughing. She's a sweetheart:) I didn't sleep well this night, because I'd been coughing, and Nicole knee'd me a couple of times. haha. Next up Day Two!
