I saw the Sandy sign so I took some time to figure out where the heck you are lol I've driven San Francisco to Vancouver, BC a couple of times so been by on the interstate anyway. Mt Hood dominates the drive for quite aways. We drove it one year after some fires. Don't remember the year but the smoke was still in the air and places were either still closed or just opening back up. Lots of thank you banners to the fire fighters on all the overpasses.
