Marcus v. Meriwether

On the road again (cue Willie Nelson music), Just can't wait to get on the road again...

In a week filled with Lewis & Clark-s (Lewis & Clark State on Tuesday and Lewis & Clark College on Saturday), it's only fitting that we spent a good portion of our travel time following the historical markers of the Lewis & Clark Trail. Tuesday found us driving through the quaint towns of Waitsburg and Dayton on our way to Lewiston, ID. If you have never had a chance to visit either of these towns while on a visit to Walla Walla, program those names into your Garmin right now; they are a must see. There are highly acclaimed restaurants (Patit Creek), fabulous bed and breakfasts, and storefront after storefront of fabulous small town shops. Since they are only about 2o minutes down Hwy 12, you can still spend all the time you want in Wonderful Wonderful Walla Walla.

Today, we are heading the opposite direction on the trail - Portland. Meriwether Lewis and his crew took 863 days to reach their destination. Thankfully, we'll be arriving tonight after a mere 4 hours on the road. A shortened practice, followed by dinner (and showers - the bus is a small confined area) and we'll be off for another great weekend of conference play: George Fox on Friday and Lewis & Clark College on Saturday.

It has all the makings of a great trip!
Safe travels to all our Whittie parents and families who we'll be seeing on the road.
