The purpose of our Trip is to travel to Oregon and watch Mom compete in the APA/WPA World Power-lifting Championships for 2016. She will compete on October 7, 2016. We have several learning objectives along the way. We hope to see the capitals of most of the states we drive through, as well as see Mount Rushmore, Old Faithful, the Space Needle and anything else along the way we can find for FAMILY FUN!
