Wonderful travelog , DD. Love those Oregon coast pics. They bring back fond memories. As does the idea of driving cross country with a cat.
Sacha looks very relaxed and comfy. Our Cinder was also very mellow during our drive from Utah to MA. In fact, he was so relaxed we never needed to use the tranquilizers my wife got from the vet. Since Cinder didn't need them....I took them instead.
