Coburg, Oregon to our home base near Shelton, Washington

We drove our truck from home down to Cummins, then drove our coach back home on the same day; 255 miles (each way), about five hours of driving (each way), from Cummins Coach Care in Coburg, Oregon to our home base near Shelton, Washington… again.

Here’s a map showing our route home, heading north:
