Default Hello from Oregon

Left Detroit on Friday evening, and 2390 miles later here I be in Wilsonville OR.

First pic is of Wyoming and the Continental Divide.
next 2 are of the Utah mountains
and next 2 are of the Columbia river basin.

Congratulations, but the whole of Oregon and you end up in Wilsonville? The only good thing in Wilsonville is Frys! (Oh and 'Wankers' Corner Store - just around the corner from Frys!)

Some nice areas around there woth a look are Lake Oswego, or head a little more westerly to the Mcminville area for some fantastic vineyards!

Have a good time!

Just drove back from Portland with the girlfriend this weekend.
Went through Nevada and Utah, back to rainy ol' Colorado. Nice scenery.

What's the job, Manc?
