Road Journals Blog— [2]As Leslie Forberg toured the Pacific Northwest in search of unique and delectable apple cider for an article that ran in the March/April Oregon edition [3] of VIA, she ended up making many discoveries that had nothing to do with cider ... and a few that did.

In search of the perfect cider [4]: Proper cider must be made correctly.
Fort Worden’s past, present equally alluring [5]: The old fort on Washington's Olympic Peninsula has much to offer, both historically and for those seeking recreation by the sea.
The speed of slow in Cowichan Bay [6]: Fast just doesn't cut it here, especially when it comes to cuisine.
Rafting on the Yakima perfect for a lazy summer day [7]: Summertime in Oregon calls out for the occasional meandering, lazy float.
Mission Mill Museum in Salem a textile-based trip through the past [8]: A reminder of when Oregon was known for its textiles.
