Subject:more trip planning help please

My wife and I are getting closer to actually committing (or being
committed) to doing this fly west, buy camper (WA), see daughter
get married (again) (SW OR), abuse brother on half century of
living event (MT), drive like less than leisurely across the rest
of the country to NC. So, if we start in Seattle around the 25th
of June, spend 3-4 days in North Bend, OR around the 30 th of
June, and spend a couple days in Helena, MT around the 6-7 th of
July, what else should be do, who else should be meet. Oh and we
want to be in NC by mid week.  Did I mention that the camper may
well be a diesel?

So, any help, the north west is the great unknown to us. I know we
are crazy, but we will have return airline tickets with strategic
stop over cities. Any suggestions of routing, must see places,
great camping opportunities. New friends we should meet.

 Any and all  tips would be greatly appreciated? This thing is
still a ways from happening, and at this point we could sure use
your help in letting us know why it should.

Here's hoping that we pull this off and meet many of you before
mid July. And, oh yes, we have to be back by the end of  July for
the High Country Bus Festival at Grandfather Mountain.

I almost hesitate to sign our names at the end here for being know
for such a hare brained idea. Lois is sure I am nuts. If we
progress on this, I will keep the list informed.

Thanks
