And you asked about Oregon - it is a truly a beautiful state and much of it is still unspoiled<br /><br />We will be staying in Seaside for a few days - then head to Newport, then Bandon.<br /><br />Then make our way up 1-5 for shopping.<br /><br />There are several lighthouse and lots of interesting shops and restaurants.<br /><br />We are about 6 hours from Seaside so it&#39;s not a bad drive.<br /><br /><br />I will hit the outlet centers en route - but that goes without saying LOL.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b319/hazelson/PacificCity005.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
