Dateline Oregon.
I have temporarily relocated to Oregon for a few months, got a contract job that is just to good to pass up. I drove out the last week in February, and once I get settled down a bit more, I'll have much to say about the drive.
I do have one quick rant about Oregon. You are not allowed to pump your own gas here. It must be something about coastal states, they are just too paternalistic for my taste. The only other state that may be worse is Wyoming, which apparently shuts down I-80 (and all its bypasses) at the drop of a hat. I know the weather gets nasty up there, but the webcam images and the traffic reports showed a typical snow swept highway in winter, the kind we in New England see all the time. Why can't I be trusted to pump gas and know how drive in the snow?
Enough rant for now, I need to get ready for work.
