We took a two week driving trip into Oregon and Washington, hoping to avoid wildfires and smoke that are often prevalent at this time of year.
We drove from Oakland to Bend Oregon and spent three nights touring the Cascades, lakes and volcanic sights.
We drove to Anacortes, Washington and caught the ferry to Friday Harbor on San Juan Island where we stayed for three nights.
We took a ferry back to Anacortes and drove to Tacoma, before heading to Mount Rainier National Park.
We saw several sights in central Oregon including Gordon House and a wildlife park before heading home.
