In the Fall of 2008 I headed out West for the very first time. Being
from a small town in Florida this trip was going to be a big one. This was
going to be my first airplane trip and the first time I seen mountains and
snow.
We started our trip on Thanksgiving day flying out
of Orlando (MCO) which is an awesome airport. We flew into
Portland Airport (PDX) that night, of course it was raining. We got our rental
car and headed to Eugene, Oregon (home of the Duck!!).
While in Oregon we visited the Pacific Ocean and
drove the coast line to California. What a difference of states between the gas
prices and having to pump your own gas!!! The next couple of days we visited
Bend, Sisters, and Willamette. These places were the most beautiful places I
had ever visited in my life. White covered mountains, white covered Christmas
trees it was awesome.

The road trip through the Willamette National Forest was unforgettable if
you ever get the chance to take OR-126 and the Pacific coast line!!!
