For the first time this trip, both Suzie and the truck compass is pointing us going N for a sustained time, so I guess we must be headed towards home. We are now in a very small town about 309.7 miles north of Laughlin, Nevada. Passing through Las Vegas without a stop and Suzie did her typical outstanding job directing us through the interstates and traffic, I really do love her!

Head for the coast!...hwy 101 up the coast...beautiful drive...Sealion caves...wax museums, From southern Oregon to the Washington border...nothing better than the Oregon Coast if your in the "states".
Seaside Oregon is a beautiful town with a calm and entertaining night life...a street carnival year round...up the road a ways is Licholn
City....the best Casinos in Washington and Oregon are located here....A very nice hotel that does take four legged friends is there with decent rates this time of year...fire place in the room...balcony overlooking miles and miles of sandy Pacific Ocean Beaches....you can hear the waves ALL night long while the fire crackles near by....and FREE INTERNET! After a couple days here you can drive out on several roads or continue back up the coast...another WONDERFUL casino is located just 20 miles inland from Lincoln City. If you cut back to Interstate 5 and follow the Columbia River Gorge inland it is a beautiful drive...and there is a paddle boat restaurant and cruise that is an enjoyable event. So anyway you are obviously in an area I know well so if you want interesting things to do...head for 101!!
The Northern California area is a beautiful drive on 101 too...but Southern Oregon is kinda crappy! Just watch the border police...they steal your strawberries!!!!
Good to hear of the winnings - thought, by the length of time slack, they may have caught you rounding and took you to that quiet place in the desert with wild burrows....
Are we on the road again yet? Can I dump just one more dollar? and what the heck is that all about with the penny machines?? Takes forever to pay on one of those...not to mention who has a penny anymore?
Nice picture, all Democrats I see.
Heather received her post card today and was very excited! She laughed hard at the picture! She also thought she should inform me what the other name for burrows is! Boy she sure thought it was cool to say that!
Anyways they are doing well and now that you have given her a date she has marked it and will keep close track! (IF YOU ARE NOT BACK BY THAT DATE SHE SAID YOU BETTER HAVE A GOOD EXCUSE!! I TOLD HER WHAT IF YOU GOT "LOST" AND SHE AND SHE VERY PROMPTLY EXPLAINED THAT YOU HAD SUZIE SO GETTING LOST WAS NOT AN EXCUSE! SHE DOESN'T MISS A THING.)
