LA to Portland Road Trip – Day 3
This was a pretty easy drive from Eugene, OR to Newport, OR. We were meeting Kristin’s parents at a beach house they rented in Beverly Beach, seven miles North of Newport. We decided to take the more scenic Route 99 instead of going up more I-5.
Mile 28: Took a quick detour to Benton Lane Winery and bought a bottle of wine. I’m not a big wine drinker, but everybody said it was good.
Mile 52: We stopped for a bathroom break. This place was in the middle of nowhere. There was a sign on the wall from somebody wanting to buy four goats for a good price.
Mile 80: We got to Newport a few hours before Kristin’s parents, so we continued on to Lincoln City to look around. We stopped at a glass blowing studio and watched an artist make a really cool abstract glass bust.
