Yesterday we woke in Eureka, broke down camp, and continued north to Portland, Oregon. We were hoping to make it to Seattle in time for dinner but that just wasn't going to happen. We took more time for another pretty drive, hugging more of the coast and finding more woods. We evdrivingund sheep along the drive, doing sheep things. Who knew that there were so many of them in Oregon?
Making it to Portland, we met with one of Deanna's friends (Deadletter) from Texas. He gave us a tour of his warehouse maker space, which is a divided space that is rented to local artists who need space to make stuff. There are carpenters, blacksmiths, woodworkers, builders, and even an archer there. Deanna was excited, as she's working on conjuring up a similar space for artists in Maine. I could see the creative juices flowing and it was fun to watch. But we were hungry, so what should we do? Hmmmmm... How about a brew pub? Score! Deadletter escorted us to HUB, a local spot with yummy food and good beer (the ESB was especially good). What would a trip to Portland be without a brew?
After a well appreciated shower we hit the road again, heading for Noah & Maggie's place in Seattle. Instead of waking them at midnight we decided to crash at another KoA along the way, within an hour of their place. Snuggled between a few other campers after another 500 miles of driving, it's time to hit the hay.
