Tillamook is small even compared with Corvallis. But there are some touristy things to do.

I really didn't like the pics of myself but for Bobskoot I put them up since he likes people pictures. Wait until you see me in Baker City after riding 450 miles (700 km) that day.

A catch 22 sometimes. I wonder if people in the UK and Europe feel safe in their little cars because you sure don't see the giant SUVs we have around here. When we had our Nissan Versa I never felt unsafe. Small, oh yeah, but not unsafe.<br /><br />I did chuckle about your comment about not feeling safe in a small car, but still riding a bike. Maybe it is because you have more maneuverability on the bike. Faster acceleration and braking for avoiding incidents.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-67714123742373213742012-07-06T09:22:36.181-07:002012-07-06T09:22:36.181-07:00Yes, I did take cows pics for you.

And you can't even call it sad panda!! ;)<br /><br />There was research here for "bent" trees that Native Americans bent them as markers; pointers to water, a trail, etc. we see many out here. But never that many for one tree!<br /><br />Great pictures of you and Troubadour.<br /><br />I had to laugh at the truck. Even the trailer it was pulling was lifted. I laugh though because I like big trucks. Granted,..that one is way excessive. But I used to be an EMT. Helped at too many accident sites. I drive a truck so that if someone hits me they are going under me and not through me. Strange to have that mentality and yet ride a motorcycle. Go figure. ;)BeemerGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15239761274177026636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-85449448314710575282012-07-05T17:22:57.952-07:002012-07-05T17:22:57.952-07:00I am smiling ear to ear here.

And the stubby little lighthouse. And the octopus tree. What cool stuff! Even if you do look a bit tired in that first shot, I really like those pics of you guys. A rainy, gray, but memorable weekend.
