February 16 - 21 - Portland, Oregon

Interstate 84, eastbound from Portland, OR, is a scenic highway going through the Columbia River Gorge and Mount Hood National Forest recreational area. The Columbia River`s gorge spans over 100 miles and on one side of the river gorge is the state of Washington, the other side is the state of Oregon. Mountains, forest, waterfalls, damns, fishing, hiking, rafting, golfing, lots of state parks, and phenonmal camping. This area has a ton of activities to do amidst of lush scenic landscapes. The terrain made us feel like we were getting closer to home. and is very very scenic. It deserves another visit, in the summertime, sometime down the road for us to explore it more.
