HOLY COW!!

So it's been a very interesting couple of days since I've last written my blog. So Thursday night we left San Francisco and ended up spending the night in Redding, California at the beautiful Hilton Inn. Well, the parking lot we spent the night in was nice anyways...


I have a lot to catch you up on, but I'll do that later... On to right now!

so we started today off at the Oregon coast in Reedsport where the weather forcast was severe winds clocked at up to 120mph and warning against any unnessary travel. So... what did we do... We jumped off the coast and trudged into Portland. You know I have to add these big cities are quite stingy about their internet, We went into Barnes and Noble and paid $3.99 for a one time internet use, in which we had just enough battery power to get directions of that city. We are now in Hermiston, OR.

We made reservations for a Budget Inn, and google mapped it. Upon arrival at just near 1am, we came to discover the hotel doesn't exist! We called 411, and asked the locals, they never heard of it. Well Hermiston is a little town of about 15,000 people, and most all of them were already asleep. So, to make a long story short, we pleaded our case at the comfort inn, discovered that they were booked for a wrestling tournament, but had one room left. "We'll take it!!" Then we discovered it was dirty, and actually wasn't available. So the wonderful receptionist p us up to a Sweet on the top floor- their best room for the lowest price they could possibly give us! (Under $80!!!). Did I forget to mention Bonnie spent hours trying to get online at our last hotel in Reedsport. We paid for wireless at the hotel, but it just wasn't strong enough and kept spitting out distasteful naked pop-ups. Don't get me wrong, we Really did enjoy the Salty Seagull (hotel), no sarcasm intended.

It's late, but I'll have to catch up with the blog after the ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZzzZzzz's ! Good night, and the Stars are Beautiful!
