Finished that drive (UPDATED)
The drive to St. Helens is beautiful. I did note that none of the trees appear to be more than 30 years old, however, which seems odd to me. I wonder if it has something to do with logging?
The entrance to Morton on EB US 12 is really quaint as well- I enjoyed it, but I still like the SR 7 SB entrance with the giant mountain in front of the town better
SR 508 is underrated as a Morton to I-5 thoroughfare by Google Maps. Not a lot of commercial traffic save for some logging trucks, speed limit 55 for more than half of it, 50 for the other half (but you can speed)
Anyway, this weekend I head to Idaho and back:
Clinching
- US-2
- SR 17
- SR 27
- SR 41
- SR 172
- SR 203
- SR 207
- SR 274
- SR 278
- Idaho 41
- Idaho 58
- Idaho 60
While making progress on SR 20 from SR 211 to US-2 as well as US-395 from I-90 to US-2.
I’ll clinch Whitman County
If I have time while I’m there (maybe on Monday) I want to go ahead and clinch US-2, drive SR 20 from SR 211 to US-2 and also clinch SRs 41, 206 and Idaho 41, but there’s like a 30% chance of this actually happening.
With more information on the situation I’ll be able to get the US-2 box and clinch that- SR 206 if I have time. If not I have to head down that stretch of road again when I clinch SRs 20 and 211, but US-2 is going to be done.
It will be nice to get my computer back as I am accumulating a large backlog of photos
My computer is back. I’m getting started on uploading and posting the backlog tonight.
