Blackberry Pickin'

Oh, and I forgot to tell you that Oregon has blackberry bushes all over the coastal area and while Ken hooked up the pull-car...I stood next to the RV and picked a cup full of blackberries. After being pricked by their thorns a couple of times, I figured out that blackberry pickin' is a lesson in patience - so I figured out a slower method of acquiring those little berries without pain. I picked a cup full in just minutes and we enjoyed them with breakfast this morning - they were mouth-watering sweet and delicious.

Also, the highways through Oregon are some of the best we have traveled, which is very important when traveling in an RV...and trying to type and download photographs. When the printer is sliding around and the laptop is escaping, I feel like a modern day Lucille Ball (The Long Long Trailer - we watched the movie last night and it is very funny - especially when you can relate to much of it).

We are headed to Twin Falls, Idaho...to check out the Snake River (thanks for the recommendation, Betsy). The Snake River is supposed to be beautiful and we want to see it for ourselves and share it with you. This is where Evil Knievel, in 1974, tried to jump the canyon on his motorcycle (unsuccessfully - but don't worry, he didn't die).
