Crater Lake

We rented a Mustang convertable because it sounded like fun. It was. We put about 1000 miles on it in a week, mostly in Oregon, but a little bit of it was in California and Washington.  One thing I noticed pretty quick was that driving in Oregon was just so calm and stress-free. Everyone drove in a sane manner, and even in heavy traffic it was just different.  Then I realized that NOBODY WAS ON THE PHONE because it's illegal to talk on the phone and drive in Oregon. And apparently, that does make as much of a difference in how people drive as I suspected that it would. We need to adopt the same law here, if ya ask me.

Oh yeah....according to the onboard computer thingie, the Mustang got 25.8 MPG while we had it. Impressive considering it was also pretty quick when ya hit the gas.
