The oregon vortex is the place to see.  Six miles off I-5 and 40 miles
north of the california border in gold hill.  Good ole americana.  Stop
for a meal at maria's, or millies in grants pass on your way through.

Subject: Travel from Oregon to Austin

Folks,
In early June I'll be driving the Westy from Austin TX out to L.A., then
up
the coast to the Bay Area for a day or two, then up to Oregon, where my
girlfriend will fly in and meet me and other friends for a long mountain
cabin weekend.

Then, between June 17-30 my girlfriend and I will drive from Oregon back
home to Austin.

Would appreciate feedback on cool things to see/do along the way.  We
have
never been to any of the Rocky Mountain States, Oregon or Utah, before.
I'm
more interested in advice on the return part of the trip, as I *have*
been
thru New Mexico, Arizona and SoCal before.

Would be interested in meeting listers along the way, if only to share a
quick drink, compare mods, or whatever.

Am also looking for advice on the best cell phone plan, just for
emergencies.  So far it seems that Cingular has the best plan, but I
don't
claim to be an authority.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Cheers,

Chris
