Travel during Christmas Weekend

On Saturday night, my friend messaged me asking for a ride and I thought that it was in Washington. Oh my goodness, it was in Oregon. It was about an hour past the Dalles which means that it's way longer than my trips to my aunt's house. During her visit with her friend, I hanged out around the town and went to a local park where I got this photo. 

I wish that I would have taken the drive the day before so we could enjoy the whole day. I think that the next time, we will leave early on Saturday morning to do one of the visits the night before and then the morning visit because let me tell you that it was super hard to drive in pouring down rain.
