I'm starting to plan a trip to the pacific NW. Plan on leaving the 1st or 2nd of Aug. Of course going to take the 914 on the journey, heading up to vancouver then to vacouver island, do a bit of visiting with friends, then taking 101 back to San Fran. Leaving point is Salt Lake City. This will actually be my first long venture in my teener anything I should know or need to bring with me on the venture. Car seems to me that it is ready for this trip, will have it tuned an ready to rock when the times comes. Just looking for any unexpected surprises that I might be able to deal with by having some extra stuff aboard. All you help will be appreciated.
Thanks All In Advance ö¿ö |

The Anacortes ferry through the San Jauns is special indeed. If you have the time spend some time on the islands. Lopez island which is the first stop is the picture of tranquility, farms, woods not much traffic absolutely beautiful.
San Juan Island (Friday Harbor stop is incredible too. If you can spend a night at Roche Harbor on the other side of the island. Bit of history on San Juan Island are American Camp and English Camp. A battle was fought here in the Pig War (no kiddin). English soldier shot an American pig if I remember right. The settlement fixed the border betweem the US and Canada. The island is almost over run with rabbits, eagles all over too. Orcas Island has great roads. Would be a ball in a teener and Rosario Resort would be cool to stay at. Definitely a special part of God's Creation. Dave |
