Oregon


After another delay (got down the road only to discover I left my cell phone at home---DOH!) I finally got rolling . Then, I had a bit of a scare when my car died right in the middle of a Portland, OR rush hour. Luckily, after I pulled her over, She restarted without a burp and got moving again. Weird.

I had a quick smoke break along the Columbia River gorge. I don't smoke in my car. :) It was then then I noticed and remembered how windy it gets there. (For you rock hounds, that rock face is ancient basalt).

Aleksandra was a bit fussy all day, in her new carrier. I can't imagine why.















I also stopped for a quick burger along the way. It was very tasty and better than the "Five Guys" burger I had the next day. The homemade blueberry pie was not bad either.
