My husband and I left today for a combined driving/cruise vacation. We are renting a car in Fresno then visiting friends in the San Joaquin Valley. We will then drive from Sacramento to Vancouver, Washington on the Pacific Coast. I’m pretty excited since I have never seen the coast above Mendocino.
Bluffs at Fort Bragg, CaliforniaAfter that, we will cruise on the Columbia and Snake Rivers from Vancouver, WA to Clarkson, WA. Haven’t been there either! We will return on July 18 and I will pick up where I left off with 1957.

Have a happy and safe trip….scenic photos will be demanded of course…all play and no work etc.
Thank you! It’s good to get out of the heat.
Sounds awesome. I have never been to the west coast and this sounds like the trip to do.
Have a great trip, Bea.
If you ever make it to California, I would love to help plan your trip!
Enjoy the beautiful northwest coast!
Thanks! Just drove through the redwoods en route to Fort Bragg. It is a brisk 64 degrees. Heaven!
