Wednesday - Reedsport back to Tacoma







Headed north again. This time on route 38 from Reedsport to I-5. This route also turned out to be very pretty. We started out pretty early so we got to see the valley as the sun was rising. Elk were out in the elk viewing area. The Umpqua River was smooth and misty. Several little towns along the route featured historic markers for their older buildings. Elkton was especially cute—and featured several new wineries- would be fun to return to visit.
The drive up I-5 was without any difficulties - even through Portland. Mt St. Helens was “out”. We made our delivery a few blocks from Safeco field and managed to get out of Seattle before rush hour traffic set in.
Went to Bob and Margaret’s for showers and then out to dinner in Fife- the White Sport- good food. Slept in the truck in the PSI lot.
