Hey, Does anyone know of somewhere to camp in my teardrop while up in Portland enjoing the Rose Festival...?

Kay it is several miles out but there are nice places on the old highway going up the Columbia River. Kenny and I have camped there.

Champoeg State park is very nice also.

Thanks you guys Eunice....Are you talking about Hwy 30...? I remember a State park by the name Crown Point or something...? I must also agree with DRYVEM regarding Champoeg....stayed ther almost 20 years ago Isn't it south around Salem...?

Kay, It is about 50 minutes from downtown Portland. A little farther than I thought. Ainsworth on the columbia is about 35 miles. There a a couple of RV parks in the PDX metro area if you are into that sort of thing. Maybe some PDX teardropper will let you park at their place!

Kay, you are just our organic nature girl, aren't you? Got to know that early on with your postings. You do some very unique and cool things with your teardrop and sure as heck live in one beautiful part of the country.

How's that for the organic nature girl...?

That's an awesome itinerary! Requesting pics is too limiting here, I request a full documentary of this venture so I can live it vicariously through you.

You're in luck... I'm bringing my digital video cam on this trip and should have some great videos to share with everyone.

I'm in the market for a good video cam. One that would be best with a helmet mount or handlebar mount on my bike. Looking at GoPro or Flip. Just a great way to document and remember ocean view rides along highway one. What kind of video cam do you have?
