We headed southeast through Washington aiming for Oregon.
We drove up and over the Snoqualmie Pass. It was gorgeous and cold. There was SO MUCH SNOW.
We stopped and grabbed a quick bite to eat and shook out our legs a little before carrying on.
We needed gas and came across this fruit and antique mall that was right beside a gas station and while Jon and Jude filled the truck; Siah and I ran through all three floors in a time that would have made Grandma Rathjen proud.
It was huge and filled with amazing treasures. You could have easily spent hours looking through it all.
Dad, you would have LOVED looking through it all!
Siah particularly liked the jewelry and he’s pretty sure he needs a cowboy hat to go with his black trench coat.
Seriously! 3 floors of wonder and treasure. Amazing. We boogied down the amazing stairway and flew across the parking lot just as Jon was getting back into the truck.
As we got closer to Oregon, you notice the lack of evergreens as the land flattens out to more rolling hills and flat land.
I happened to be looking at Google Maps as we approached Oregon and was warmly welcomed by this little pop up. We made it to Pendleton, Oregon and had booked a reservation at an RV site at a KOA Campground. We pulled in, hooked up and the boys immediate jumped on the internet to “relax”. Ha ha!
Our site backed onto a gorgeous view of the Blue Mountains and after a late dinner, we shut it all down and headed to bed.
Everyone is still mostly happy and happy to be on this epic road trip; but there’s still time for that to change, eh?
