We were on the way to Oregon, it was dark, detours, first we got lost in Los Angeles,California, for two hours. When we finally figured how to work the GPS Gal, she directed us out to I-5 to Redding, California. Stopped there to visit, Aunt Ruth Helton and her family. They showed us the Funeral DVD of Uncle Vernon's Funeral, which was great to see. Then they gave a copy of the DVD of the Funeral.
Then we drove to Grants Pass to visit Ron's cousin Cheryl and Dave Painter. Ron hadn't seen them for 25 years, so spent five hours with them. Drove to Winston, Oregon, visited more Reber cousins for a few more hours. Stayed at Garden Island Palms, in Roseburg,Oregon.
The next day, we drove to Buxton Oregon, to stay with Ron's brother, Tom and Sharon. We stayed with them a week helped Sharon do her Geneology. Spent Sunday going to Church through the dense fog which we had forgotten about in Oregon. Spent the day visiting Dennis and Marianne and their family. Had Halloween dinner with all their family. Visited our daughter Rhonda and grand kids in Lake Oswego one day. Of course Grandpa took them Krispy Kremes.
It took three days to arrive at our destination. It was beautiful driving through the wonderful Autumn colors. The trees were several colors of gold, orange and red. Grants Pass was especially beautiful this time of year. Then travelled to Vancouver,Washington, stopped at looked up the phone number for my cousin who lives there. But was unable to contact her then. So we continued on to Stanwood, Washington.
