Elk FeedingCalifornia Redwoods
Just outside of Crescent City we drove up into the redwood wonderland up Howland Hill Road. The road started out being paved but quickly changed to a dirt road. Brian posed for this picture at Stout Grove Loop. The old-growth redwoods were spectacular to say the least.
Our day ended in the very small town of Garberville.

We decided to stop in Brookings, Oregon for the night, it might just be the last town before the northern California border.

Road Trip - Day 2

Astoria BridgeTillamook Air Museum Jetty Fishery

Started out in Astoria, Oregon, traveled south on Hwy 101 to Florence, Oregon. It rained off and on, all day today. The skies were grey and even though the visibility wasn't the best, we did see the beautiful Oregon coastline. Granted the day would have been so much more beautiful with sunny skies, but we have to remember that it is still March. We're looking forward to the sun in our near future, maybe not tomorrow, but hopefully soon.

Lewis and Clark Bridge connecting Washington and Oregon

Good-bye WashingtonLooking up at the bridge while traveling over it.

Today our travels began in the afternoon around 2:30pm. We drove down I-5, turning off at exit 36 to head over to the Lewis and Clark Bridge and into Oregon, headed west for a while and ended our day in Astoria, Oregon.

When the sun rises I'll take another photo of a bridge, the Astoria Bridge. The hotel we're staying at is almost under it.

Just in time for Easter is this bunny wearing a pink floppy hat and tucked safely inside of this miniature tea cup.
