We drove up to Portland this week to visit family. That's 10 hours of Erik driving for me to knit! Well, I drove for a few hours on the way up, but I did get a lot of knitting done. On the way up, I finished my Mingus socks, knit a couple of fish tawashis for the boys and knit part of a dishcloth that ended up being ripped out. On the way back, I made a lot of progress on my Chocolate Tomato.
In other news, the views on the way were amazing. I continue to be astonished by the California landscape.
Then when were in Portland we drove out to see Multnomah Falls and I learned just how gorgeous Oregon's scenery is as well.
The kids brought their umbrellas and were hoping to get splashed by the falls.
There are also gorgeous views to be had of the Columbia River Gorge. Of course, the photographs don't do it justice.
Then there was the drive home, which involved snow and below freezing temperatures! Talk about crazy.
Nuts!
