Clara and I are sad to leave my parents in Houston, but we travel on to Oregon tomorrow morning. We meet up with Tom in Portland and then head east towards the Columbia River Gorge. Here is our itinerary for the week:
Monday - Fly to Portland, camp near the Columbia River Gorge
Tuesday - Hiking, sleeping at the same campsite as Monday
Wednesday - Oregon Coast, camping right by the beach
Thursday - Redwood Forest - stay in a cabin
Friday - Hiking in redwood forest, drive back up to Oregon
Saturday - fly to Chicago
Sunday - Drive home
Whew! It's going to be quite a week. We do not anticipate having internet access so I won't be updating the blog. Expect lots of pictures when we get back!!
