Command Central!!

Day 2 of our trip.

We drove through some beautiful country. It's unbelievable how much water is in Lake Shasta. We were here for a family vacation 8-12 years ago (8 years is my opinion and 12 years is Vern's :) ). During that trip we had forest fires and the water level was down 15-20 feet. Today when we drove by the forest was a lush green and the water level was higher than the water mark!! I've attached a picture of Mt. Shasta.

We're staying in rest areas since we aren't really "sight seeing" until we get up to Washington. The rest areas in Oregon are really nice.

To answer John's quesions: No; No; Don't have a tracker yet...but Vern likes gadgets; 55mph; it's beautiful and between 70-80 degrees; don't know yet as we're not in Canada; Yes loved Dudley!!

Kathy some must haves: GPS very helpful, but what's more important is the navigator in the passenger seat who has an Atlas to really know where we're heading. XM radio, oh my gosh awesome. We've listened to more comedians than I thought possible. We also listened to the first few chapters of a James Patteson Women's Murder Series...now we have to tune in next Wednesday at 5:00 to hear the next few chapters.

We'll be in Washington tomorrow with a nice drive along the coast.
