| Seth picked the colors for his afghan, they are really pretty and I don't think I would have ever come up with this combo. I'm working fast so he doesn't break out that whip! |

We drove up to Oregon on Wednesday. We cruised right along all day until we were what should have been over an hour out. The traffic came to a stand still, then we would move a bit and then stop....no accident, just traffic. It took us an hour to go seven miles and at that rate we would have been another 9 hours on the road. We were able to dive off onto 34 and cruised 20 miles out of our way by way of Corvallis, but we would have maybe made it to Albany is all in that time. Highway 5 was a parking lot all the way up into Washington and we were thankful to have had another route we could take. Seth is a wonderful traveler...no complaining, twelve hours on the road is LONG.
We had a lovely dinner prepared by Michelle on Thanksgiving and yesterday we watched movies and relaxed. Today we hit the road for home...it is such a long ride, but we didn't hit much traffic and we slipped on by Eugene before the highway clogged up with Duck and Beaver fans for the big Civil War game...as they call it there.
We watched Crazy, Stupid, Love....great movie, unpredictable, refreshing, entertaining and funny. We also watched the last Indiana Jones movie...something about a Crystal Skull...it was okay, moved along pretty good.
I'm tired so excuse any mistakes! Off to my own bed...I missed it.
