JenTiki camping as kids was such a great time. We always went to Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon. We never had snow but all the water was icy cold in the summer. It's fun to picture you at Crater Lake with snow. I wish we had stayed to play but it was snowing lightly and we didn't know if it would get worse. Thank you for the story.

Philot is it the bust size??? Somehow it all gets done. Maybe it's my 14 hour work days.

LoriLovesTiki a beach house sounds like so much fun. We flew over the Jersey shore coming back from a trip. So many homes on the beach. I see you on fb and I was just thinking of you yesterday.

I've had so many friends here on Tiki Central that have disappeared. I keep thinking of dartharnie. Hey guy, where are you???

============================

Here's some more of our trip to Oregon. Part II.

From Crater Lake we drove on to Redmond for the night. Along the way there we stopped again to tiki hunt.
Is this thing old or new? Tiki or African art?

They wanted $850 for it. It did not come home with us.

One antique store had a zillion old boots for sale.

We put in for a Holiday Inn and the GPS took us out into the boonies. We were told to turn in to a place called Canyon Escapes and found a Holiday Inn Resort with 3 golf courses. Too bad we don't play. Our room had a view of the course.

The next morning we were off again heading to Astoria on the edge of Oregon along the Columbia River. We drove past 3 volcanos with snow.

We tried to have breakfast at a fun place but with an hour wait we left and went to Denny's.

The Columbia River and a town called The Dalles were pretty but we just kept on driving. We passed the northern edge of Portland after many hours on the road and didn't stop there either. Well traffic stopped us and it was stop and go for an hour and then we were on our way again.

We finally arrived in Astoria. We went straight downtown to all the antique stores. We had 2 hours before they would close and we didn't want to shop the next day. Right off we found a tiki bar.

We quickly photographed the inside and

after the photos it was back to running around to all the stores.

We didn't find a single tiki in Astoria. I bought one shot glass with the name on it. We found a restaurant on the ocean and sat

down for a nice dinner.

We had been to this tower last year so we skipped the drive.

Astoria is full of Victorian homes. It was fun to drive a few streets near downtown. We even saw a dear jump a fence and go into a backyard.

We found our Holiday Inn hotel and it was right under this bridge.

I'm pointing to our room on the second floor.

This is the view from our room.

We saw so many beautiful landscapes on the drive but it's something I wouldn't do a second time. I'm glad we did it this once.

Cheers, Wendy
