The Oregon Scenic Byway

2014 West then East, Oregon, Road Trip

Spent the day traveling east on US Highway 20. This sounds suspiciously like a blog entry from last summer when we traveled 20 through the wine country of New York’s Finger Lakes. But today we traveled through the Willamette Valley, the Cascade Mountains, and sagebrush desert. We ended the day at a little resort/campground at a geothermal hot springs out in the middle of nowhere. A soak in the waters and a big sky sunset is a good way to say good night! Might be some beautiful stars out there but there’s also ferocious mosquitos so we’re grateful for our little tin can shelter!

OUR VERY

LATEST

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
