From 84 West along the Columbia River Gorge to meeting the Pacific Ocean along Highway 101, the Tour de Pants chugs along in Oregon! With "Ant Hill", our '64 Airstream trailer and home in tow, and our faithful companion, Nellie, we've thoroughly enjoyed cruising the road.
Many thanks to Jean and John for hosting a great party in their beautiful home in Rockaway Beach, set up high on a rock bluff with nothing but jaw dropping views of the ocean and the setting sun! We enjoyed meeting the women of Rockaway, learning about gardening as many were Master Gardeners and indulging in John's award-winning chocolate mousse.
We headed west on Highway 20 (WOW! Oregon, you have so much beauty!) and climbed into the mountains--a little snow and rain don't scare us!--to find the high desert country of Bend. We toured the streets of Bend, sipping on beers from Deschutes Brewery and meeting folks at the Summit Saloon, listening to local bluegrass and passing out RAP koozies.
With frost on the windows of the trailer as we awoke to views of Three Sisters Mountaions, we're now off to Eugene to meet with Sarah's aunt and uncle and to spread our message of Work Strong!
