Solo time...

Today is the first day I will be traveling solo. I'm a little nervous, but I think once I get on the road I will feel a lot better. Things always seem more daunting before actually setting out, and it will certainly be nice to have quiet time and clear my head. As much as I love portland and friends, half the point of the trip was to get away from everything.

I will be traveling along highway 26 through oregon and should be near the base of mount Hood tonight. First day of climbing mountains! We shall see how this goes. My next major stop is Boise, Idaho!
