Corvallis, OR
I finally made it to Ruy’s place in Corvallis. I got here last night after traveling yesterday through the Willamette National Forest.
I do not have much time to say much today, but I did finally gather all my pics into one place so you can click here to see a photo gallery of the grande voyage thus far:
Kanpai Restaurant in Bend, Oregon.
This guy is a great chef and he was very nice too.

This was some of the best sushi I have ever eaten. This particular dish is called Mother and Child. Get it? It took me a bit to get it too, but then I finally figured it out with some help from friends.

This is Mount Washington. It looks better in person, obviously.

It was Saturday at the Farmer's Market in Corvallis when this shot was taken.
This was a great shot I took in the desert of Colorado. One of my favorites of the trip.

This is a motel I stayed in at Maybell, Colorado. The woman in the photo is the proprietor. She is very proud of her sign; she told me explicitly to take her photograph in front of it so I did.

The room I stayed in at Maybell off of highway forty in Colorado. This really was the middle of nowhere. Not even a gas station.

This is a classic shot of the dessert on Highway forty in Colorado.

This is an interesting view of a lone tree in the middle of the valley.

You can see
a dandelion anywhere, but everything looks prettier in the Rocky Mountains.

This is a picture from the Rocky Mountain National Park near the Old Fall River Road. I think this is the Chasm Falls.
