adventures

[nibot]

Looking at the map, the potential adventure to be had is just obscene. Olympic National Park! Rainforests! Hot Springs! Mt. Rainer! Mt. St. Helens! (Volcanoes!) The Cascades! The Pacific Ocean! Archipelagos! Jesus! (That is an exclamation! He is not actually here!) I wish I had a month, a tent (or a vanagon!), and, (no offense to dear old Stefanos), the girl! (Maybe in May!)

I'm thinking of looping up on 101 around Olympic NP, maybe staying in a hostel in either Forks or Aberdeen rather than trying to make it all the way down to Portland or Eugene quite yet.

Aberdeen is lame, aside from being where Kurt Cobain was from.

I'll give you a list of sights in Portland once you get there.

Did St. Helens last summer, and it was pretty fun. If you do head down to Portland, a visit to Powell's Books (http://www.powells.com/) is definitely a must--that place is incredible.

Get your travelling in before hitting Eugene. Not that it isn't a hugely great towne, but you'll find it's a bit sleepier than the big cities. Check the eugene weekly online for events/music and pick out one you'd like to see. There are shows every night here, but you have to come prepared.

great local hikes, though :)

When might you be in Portland? Or is this not happening? Give me a call if/when you get there, since I may still/already be in town for a confernece.
