Day 12 - Long Beach, WA to Madras, OR

So the day started pretty much as planned. English muffin and orange juice and then a load of wash started. Decided we would head into town and get a coffee before getting ready to leave tomorrow. Heading back to the house Barb happened to take a look at the rental agreement and found we were to be out today by 11:00. Well that certainly changed the plan for today.

After a quick drive back to the house Barb started on the laundry while I started cleaning up around the house. As soon as the clothes were out of the dryer we finished the packing and started loading the car. A last walk around the house and the key in the lockbox we were on the road with 4 minutes to spare. Lunch was at Subway in Clatskanie. No oysters. After crossing from Washington to Oregon at Astoria we crossed back to Washington at Longview and then back to Oregon near Portland. Carry, no carry, carry, no carry. You may know what that means.

We were supposed to be at a friends on Saturday, but rather than show up early Barb got us a motel in Madras. After checking in we crossed the street to have a very good Mexican dinner. No oysters.

Tomorrow we plan, once again, to get to Redmond for three nights with old friends.

237.7 miles today.
