PNW Roadtrip 2011 - Part 1

Part 1: Fullerton to Lake Isabella. Lake Isabella to Shasta. Shasta to Portland.
... And so begins the 2nd annual roadtrip. In a search for weather, good coffee, friends and adventure we set off on the 20 hour drive.

We were the guest of quite a few rest stops.. They are much prettier in Oregon.

Will was a perfect host and partner in exploring! (We're all a tad tired now).

Oops.. The car is far and it's really raining. Oh wait, Awesome!

On our way out we stopped at Multnomah Falls. We had hopes to hike to the top but dark and rain rolled in. It was adventure none the less.

It's so great to walk Portland. I love the many unique shops, restaurants and new areas to explore. And the green moss, trees and plant covered porches are so lovely and unique. I could sit in a fabulous coffee shop and drink coffee, people watch, read/write and ponder all day long. Oh, and I am pretty sure it's never 78 in December like SoCal.
To be continued..
