Our Trip to Oregon

A Windshield Tour of Our Trip
Oklahoma City-to-Eugene


It looks like the picture taking started outside of Denver on day two. These are not the sunflowers of my childhood. I remember giant sunflowers on 8-10 foot stalks. These guys are half that size, but still make a beautiful

Day two is starting out well.


Rocky Mountains in the distance


One of the nicest shopping centers I've ever been too. Very well design.

Somewhere after Cheyenne. Headed up the great Divide.




Not a very attractive monument. Kind of strange really. I think this is at the top of the Divide.



You ever wanted to look up Abe's nose?




Wyoming is pretty in places




Snow fence country
It's a horizontal world

The desolate parts of Wyoming and Utah





What a concept.


They obviously destroy the view-shed.



Must be getting close to Provo




















A little reminder of why we are headed out to Oregon.





The Great Salt Lake (I think)


On to Idaho







We are fairing well


Is that the Okanogan?















We don't know it, but we are about to see the ugliest country in the West, Eastern Oregon









Civilization













The camera man must have been tired. The following are the few pictures taken on the way home. A few pictures from about Sisters to Provo.
