TWST Day 4 - Keepin' on, Lebanon
The final day of this week's TWST has arrived. The road has treated us
well on this journey, so I expected our last stop in Lebanon to be just
as enriching as the others.

Day 3, the penultimate day of the TWST has brought us to the communities
of Harrisburg and Sweet Home.Waking up this morning, I was greeted and
energized by the beauty of the Willamette River outside my door.
