These days are so full and fun! For a little variety, we spent the whole day in Oregon enjoying an amazingly beautiful state.

1706.8 miles: The day started out nice and wet and gray.

Around 1800 miles: We had seen a couple semi-trucks with these mud flaps and finally got a picture of them. If we were getting $.44 per mile, we would have made almost $800 by this point!
