Crescent City, California

Left Portland, left Oregon. Long, long day driving. Movies, books on tape, snacks, art for the kids. Beautiful southern Oregon, Grant's Pass' caveman and then the absolute wonder of the redwoods as we approached the coast. Amazing amount of semi-trucks. We swam in the hotel pool, ate some dinner and are now hanging out in the hotel room watching cable (a big deal to our cable-deprived children). Tomorrow, the redwoods... and if we can, the long stretch to Alameda. But 350 miles still to go. At least the pod stayed closed!
