Day 1 :: 21 January 2007 :: Bremerton to Philomath


The drive down to Philomath was actually rather uneventful, which is always a good way to start a trip, particularly on a trip you've done several times already. Particularly after the frantic "OMG! What are we missing?" freak out that is so typical of the time right before a long trip. Last minute playing with the booties that we knew we'd be missing horribly. *sigh*

We stopped at the Big Dog store in Woodburn and bought more clothes. Because, really? You can never have enough Big Dog in your wardrobe. Seriously!

And dinner was at the Del Taco in Eugene. This was total squeeage, because Jenn has been going on and on about Del Taco ever since I've known her. I fell in love with Del Taco! Totally FTW!

We spent the night at the Galaxie Motel in Philomath, what we've jokingly come to refer to as the "X-Files motel." Yeah, Philomath totally fits that X-Files small town profile. It cracks me up greatly…

Really not much here, other than spending some time with Lorre and Will, which is always a good thing for my soul. Oh, and can't forget seeing the egret on the way down. They're becoming more and more prevalent for us on these long trips. Very interesting…
