Mid-Road trip: filthy, but couldn't resist



Off I-5 just north of Shasta. Little Shasta on the left, Black Butte cinder cone on the right.

Drove from Portland -> San Diego -> Portland. 2300 miles, $470 in gas, and 32 hours of driving

I was We had tickets for Thursday only. We drove down Tuesday, spent Wednesday / Thursday in San Diego, then drove to San Jose Friday to spend the night and see friends before driving back to Portland on Saturday.

Pro Tip: Avoid filing up in the San Joaquin valley if you can. Shell V-Power was $4.59 a gallon at some stations.... (La Banos in particular).

Awesome, more than likely I will be going to cars and coffee.

The plan is
- early Friday AM (I'm thinking 4 am ish) drive straight to Portland
- Sat AM cars and Coffee while my wife is at her event
- Sunday drive out to the Goonies rock and end in Florence for the night
- Monday is Florence to Crater Lake... maybe make it to Ashland that night
- Tuesday hopefully catch a play in Ashland since that's what they are known for
- Wednesday is the long drive back home

Comicon get's pretty crazy, hope you had a good time. I had my FJ Cruiser so I can load up the roof rack with all the swag that my wife gets. We where there all 4 days.

There was another Silverstone M3 that I spotted at the Con as well parked at the Hilton the whole time.

I had the M3 in Valet Parking at the Marriott Gaslamp, which is where we were staying. Not our first SDCC but the first time we've had a downtown hotel, so that was pretty awesome.

You can hit up the C&C Facebook group for details about PDX C&C if you want before you come up!
