OK, gotta admit that Leavenworth was better than we expected.

Really? Cool.
It can be good or bad depending on expectations. Taken for what it is it can be a fun little place to stop in, grab something to eat, maybe a beer at a German themed beer garden and then bug out.

I went to the Greenwood car show a couple years ago. I was surprised how big it was. Both sides of a 10-12 block long stretch of road were shut down to traffic and lined with hundreds of wonderful cars.
Very cool. Also, saw this in the local paper. It's up in Canada on Vancouver Island but could be fun for a couple day trip up there.

couldn't be for Greenwood, but we saw a steady stream of hot rods and old coupes driving north on 97 while we were heading south.
Seriously, must have seen 60 -70 cars, and many car trailers heading north

I've been out to Tofino a couple times with my wife. The drive from Victoria to Tofino is 4+ hours. Great drive, great places to stop (Cathedral Grove is just one). Tofino itself is very sleepy, but there are some very good B&B's, and its a great place to get away for a few days, go on walks, etc. Although, the 2nd time we went there, I hit a baby deer with the rental car. We were very lucky that it didn't do any damage...

Where were a few postings that looked interesting along there. Can't remember which one exactly now.
