    Not to look past, just thinking ahead.

    Curious how many of us are planning on going up to Corvallis. I know CAAA/Team Aggie will have events, my Dad's cousin was an All-American at OSU so he may be tied into something neat as well.

    I think we are a tenative ‘yes’. Relatively easy one day drive up on Friday, back in Monday with a side trip to the coast

    I'll wager somebody in that car will want to hit the Seven Feathers en route.

    I believe we’ve been there. About 10 years ago, I umpired the Little League Senior division western regional in Salem. We took a road trip on one of the off days.

    And I’ll use my United points to fly - 8 hours of driving is too much on this body .


    Edit: wrong place. We hit Chinook Winds in Lincoln City. Also ate at this gem

    Sambo's is good (though I think it was permanently closed post-COVID...and for other reasons) if you get out to Depoe Bay - go with Restaurant Beck at Whale Cove Inn. Best food I've had on the Oregon Coast - a little bit fancy there, views are tremendous. Local Ocean Seafoods in Newport is really good as well.

    It is noteworthy that it's only a short 1 hr. ride on Hwy 20 due west to get to Newport and the Oregon Coast from Corvallis, it's very pretty there in September.

    We're staying in Depoe Bay for 5 days in late April. We'll definitely try the Restaurant Beck. Thanks for the tip!

    We have family in Newport so my wife and I may make the trip to Corvallis. Of course, our family in Newport are all OSU grads so we have to be careful!

    I’m penciling in going. Weather permitting I’ll fly. About 2.5 hours from Davis with a favorable wind.

    Does Southwest fly from Sacramento to Eugene or just PDX from SMF?

    Alaska might go to Eugene.

    CAA will be hosting a tailgate in Corvalis before the game. BTW, SWA does fly into Eugene but from SMF they send you to Vegas, then Eugene. I checked Oakland as a departure and its the same deal.

    It's a pretty short trip from Portland. Maybe 2 hours if you hit a little traffic.
