TC camping near Tigard, OR
I continue to max out the hard drive on my MacBook Pro. It is 4 years old and still running great after the extensive use I have put it through (Photoshop all the time). I am considering a new MacBook...

But this time of year, if I were headed back to the Coast from Tigard, I'd overnight at the Baldock rest area at I-5 sb exit 281. It may look out of the way by a bit, but there's an easy route through Wilsonville back to 99 and thence to the Coast. As you can see from the aerial photo at this link, there's a big area at the back where RV's can park right next to a wooded picnic ground. I've spent many a night there.
The rest stop itself has a unique history- it's one of the biggest in Oregon and is the location of an effort in the sixties to plant a tree from each of the fifty States. I forget how many trees have survived, but I understand there are efforts underway to restore the grove to the full fifty.The Grove of The States
I have used that same rest area since approximately 1976.... When camping with my family while traveling from the Puget Sound area to Northern California, that was always a favorite place to stop and camp for the night. Frequently, we would stop in relatively early, have dinner in the RV, then hang out with the folding chairs and card table and enjoy cribbage! That is where I learned to play at the age of 10... Haven't been there in a few years since moving to Alaska, plan to visit when we travel back!
