Third stop on the 'Shop Hop' and day 4 of driving north.

The third quilt/fabric shop that we stopped at was called "Bits & Pieces".  I bought a really cute apron pattern and some shiny Christmas fabric.  Here are a few pics from the store. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We left Seven Feathers Casino and RV Resort in southern Oregon just before 7am and hit the road.  It was a bit of a nasty drive with pounding rain and driving through the spray from the vehicles.  We made good time and stopped around 10:30 for a late breakfast and to fill up on diesel.  After about a 40 minute break - we were back on the road.  Driving through Oregon, it was evident almost everywhere that they had a lot of rain.  Most of the creeks and rivers were very high and some even overflowing.  They have a lot more flooding to come I'm sure.  We took the 405 around Seattle and the traffic was still crazy.  It took just over 35 minutes just to get back onto the I-5.  Once we hit Mount Vernon, the wind picked up but we managed to make it to our home park in Ferndale by 4pm.
