This morning was warm enough that I drove to work Sans gloves. Not super warm, but warmer than it has been. No frost, or ice on the road at all. Gloomy clouds and rain yesterday that almost felt like snow, but i think that if I book it over the coquahala to langley thursday, I should be fine.
Also, I have been checking out www.couchsurfing.com in an effort to meet locals where I am going (and travel the most inexpensive way I can so the trip can be a long one). And I have had a number of postive responses from at least 3 to 4 people, but I have gone with the first response and will be heading to Bend Oregon the day after i am in langley (visting friends).
Its very exciting to be finally moving forward with the plan. I had thought at times it would never get to the point where I would be out on the road this year, but things are working out.
Stay tuned for more exciting tales
