Oregon Fall 10/16/13

Spent the night in Aurora, OR and got to drive through a gorgeous section of Oregon and Northern California, straight towards our home turf,  Central CA. Eeek! I squeal with excitement to the proximity of my friends and loved ones, although it is not likely that we'll actually be able to visit while in the area. Still, the journey was beautiful, and for our trip, I needed chic traveling duds.

You've seen all of these pieces on me before, but not in this combination, which is a testament to how important it is to have items that coordinate well. Especially in during travel and other situations in which you'd have a limited clothing selection.

Cardigan: thrifted $4.

Striped Top: thrifted $3.

Jeans: Walmart $19.87

Scarf: Walmart $6.97

Flats: Payless

I also ended up with these spiffy Native American inspired earrings, only $5.99. They will make an appearance soon. :)

If you're from the northwest, you're probably familiar with the proliferation of cute little coffee huts that dot the landscape. I'm no stranger to their charms, and today I stopped at one and got piping hot chai tea and pumpkin bread. Mmmm, tastes like Fall!

You know what else reminded me of fall today? This radiant foliage of course!

Here's our truck happily taking it's break amongst the trees. :)

At this beautiful rest area near the border of OR and CA, I also had the opportunity to do some geocaching. If you have no idea what that is, please read about it here!

This is what I found.

Today was an unusually good day. :)
