Well, we made it back from the Coast in one piece. We bypassed the treachery of Highway 26 and instead took the longer, safer route via Highway 30 from Astoria to Longview, Wash. It was a fairly uneventful drive, that is until we stopped at the tourist HUB known as Clatskanie! I've taken the liberty of giving you a link to hotels in the area.
Man, if you haven't been, you're missing out. We couldn't help but stop at this amazing store. It was a combination Mini-Mart, video (as in cassettes!) rental store, and Radio Shack! We saw a woman browsing the digital answering machines right new to the cooler full of "tall boy" beer cans! Ha ha, Fred Meyer! You're not the one-stop shopping leader AFTER ALL!
That was about the highlight of the trip back. London did get a toy of a little punk rocker kid in a McDonald's happy meal (that Savannah ate, not London). You push the toy's mohawk and it makes a bizarre noise that sounds like an electric guitar shorting out.
