oregon.



I always seem to have random adventures with alisha.
We left riverside wednesday, our plan was simple:
1. wednesday- go to redding california to drop heather off at simpson
2. thursday- drive through oregon and stop in vancouver washington at courtney's house
3. friday- go to alisha's school in kirkland and move her in and then spend the day in seattle

but that is not what happened.

her car broke down in southern oregon. we were stopped on the side of the i-5. we got towed. we were waiting for the tow truck to get to us and decided to be productive and paint our nails.
got a room at the seven feathers casino in canyonville oregon. population: 1400. we were pretty much the onlyt ones at the hotel who didn't qualify for a senior discount.
here's leesh at dinenr surrounded by old ladies.
after dinner we went into town to check out the pioneer days... canyonville's celebration of oregon's 150th birthday. it was cute. we swear by this point the whole town knew there were two girls there from california whose car had broke down in their town.

we were both tired from the day and we went to bed early. thursday morn the car was ready to go so we were on our way to vancouver washington to court's house. we made it and then went back down to portland for the evening.

made a stop at voodoo doughnuts. i had a maple bacon bar
delish. i really love cities, and portland was no exception. it seemed so clean and i love all the trees surrounding it. after that we went to a bible study.

tomorrow we leave for alisha's school. we are moving her into the dorms and then going into seattle to explore.

we have met so many weird/random/interesting people on our trip so far... and im not going home till wednesday, so only God knows what elese is in store for us.
