Fun fun road trip to Oregon with Cathy and gson Scott for gdaughter Amanda’s wedding :)
We always smile when we change to Pacific time in Idaho
Thank you God! The weather was absolutely perfect…don’t think we saw a cloud in the sky the entire trip
Beautiful outdoor wedding in a park…ceremony, reception, even a dance floor, sparkling lights around trees…fun and laughs with more family :)
An adventure with city traffic and I-5: Arrived in Portland at 5pm on a Friday…lines of traffic not moving…thank goodness for Cathy’s excellent driving we found a moving lane (otherwise we’d probably still be there LOL)…
…and another night at 10pm from Salem area to Lake Oswego, got turned around because of road construction, zillions of vehicles flying down I-5 (we decided they all knew where they were going) but, again, calm and cool Cathy and navigator Scott, got us back on the right track…we decided it was just another fun adventure :)
Going to OR and returning, we stopped in Washington to spend time with gson AJ and family…loved being with ggson/ggdaughter :)
Hooray! Went to the Oregon Coast….love the Coast! Hadn’t been there for quite some time and used to go often….walked on the beach, savored the fresh ocean air, had lunch at the Sea Hag, whale watching at Depot Bay (the smallest navigable seaport in the world), touristy thing in some of the shops…fun and memories :)
Oh, and we saw a car from Vermont…wow, they were far from home!
On the way home, stayed at the Davenport Hotel in Spokane (google it) an awesome, interesting and elegant place…
…one gson planned his marriage proposal on the mezzanine in the Grand Ballroom and they videoed it for them :)
So there you have it, dear friends, mini vacation with wedding….always heartwarming to spend time with family ♥
