Well all i can say is what a trip. This has become a annual event for myself and my doubles partner Larry Ek. This year the tournament is at Mt hood lanes in Gresham, Or. all i can say is crazy we get ready to leave on saturday and it's freezing rain here in Walla Walla. but we decide to go anyway so off to portland. Well around Pendleton Oregon a Pickup in front of us losses control on the slick roads and jump the middle devide flips and ends up on the east bound side of the Highway. We stop along with some other people and help the drive out until the police arive. so back on are trip, Slow Going untill we reach Hood River. The closed I-84 and sent us to Washington 14 to finish are trip. This went well for about 15 miles until another accident closed WA-14 so we are now in traffic deadlock for 2 hours. They then open I-84 back up, so we backtrack back to Hood River. We finally make it to are hotel at 10:30 P.M 10 hours to portland when it only takes 4 1/2. As far as the bowling i ended up +91 for 5 games but Larry was 30 under not good enough to make the cut but i was happy with my shooting. I really had to fan the ball to get the 10 pin out and i felt a did that very well. The trip home was alot better only 7 1/2 hours with alot of snow. so all in all we spent more time driving this weekend than in portland, But still a good trip
