I was alerted by the traffic reporters (see helicopter in upper-left) that these folks are on this overpass every Friday during the evening commute.

After having lunch and playing in the water for a while at Sunset Bay State Park, some nice folks from Roseburg told us of a "short cut" back to US 101 without having to drive 20 minutes back through Charleston, Coos Bay, and North Bend, the way we'd driven in.

Along the way, we passed this clearcut logging operation -- I took the photo over my left shoulder as I drove past. Cropped to get rid of some of the car windowframe in the foreground and a little sky.

Stumps at the upper end of the resevoir formed by the La Grande and Alder Dams, along State Highway 7 on the way towards Mount Rainier and the town of Elbe, where there is a scenic steam train tourists can ride (and photograph). Taken through the rear passenger window of my dad's van as we drove by.

Driving northwards along Interstate-5 near Mount Shasta I took several sunset photos.

Driving northwards along Interstate-5 I got a pretty good shot of this volcanic cinder cone located at the foot of Mount Shasta itself. I also have a more highly colorized version which looks less natural but interesting anyway.
