Newport, OR and the end of Route 20

What an amazing adventure. 18 years worth of dreaming about this project accomplished in 11 days. The people I have met and the places I have visited on this project have inspired me in so many ways. It will take some time for me to process emotionally all that I have learned along the road and I am excited to return to my studio in Vermont to start the editing process... but not today! A nice dinner and several glasses of wine are very much needed.

All of my love to my amazing supportive wife Eve and my two beautiful daughters who allowed me to make this trip and without who's support it never would've been possible.

Getting close

Wow

The Santiam highway in Central Oregon is amazing! The air was so amazing… Have never smelled anything like it! I was like a dog with his head out the window breathing in all I could. Heading now towards the coast!!!!

Central Oregon

Beautiful country. Reminds me a lot of the Southwest. Very friendly people - really must get back here again someday! The oasis is the perfect spot for a huge breakfast.

Oregon

Heading into Oregon today... looks like 2 days to the coast but a lot depends on the weather in the mountains. He is the remain route....  And to all of my family and friends on the East coast please be safe!!!!

Central Idaho

Getting an early morning start. Big rain storm last night was very kind to wash my car. Hoping to make a fair amount of progress today but a lot will again depend on the weather in the mountains.
