In Brownsville, Oregon, an old time hardware store. |
North of Eugene, we turned off Interstate 5 at Brownsville to have lunch with my long time friend, Ralph Snyder. Brownsville still has the feel of a town in the early 1900s. |
A superb lunch with Ralph at the Corner Cafe in Brownsville. |
Ralph directed us to the Silver Creek State Park, about 10 miles east of Salem, where we walked around spectacular waterfalls. |
The South Falls of Silver Creek plunge 177 feet. Note the hikers to the left of the falls. |

A shortcut to Portland took us on some country farm roads. |
In Vancouver, WA, we spent the evening with family. Here, Delcine and Ginny negotiate a dinner preparation.

By taking a bit of time out for diversion, a relatively routine drive to California ended up feeling like a mini-vacation. The End |
