Entering Washington: State #4!
August 1st, 2009
Just for the record, I only entered Washington for the sake of getting back to Oregon (this time). Fastest way to get from Astoria to Portland is to cross over and get on the 5, which paralells the river from Longview down to PDX — and I was in a hurry to get to PDX before REI closed. Made it!
This is the Longview Bridge.
And the REI was nice. The employees there actually knew things, which truly sets the store apart from, say, the Santa Ana branch. Got my shoes exchanged and I now own a mostly car-based GPS after determining that the personal GPS devices aren’t ready to take the place of maps.
