One more nice thing about driving the Oregon side is that I-84 is a
divided 4-lane, whereas SR-14 across the river is two-lane with few
passing lanes (actually, none eastbound between Camas and Hood River, 3
westbound). 14 can be quite congested on weekends, and passing is a pain
(well, if you drive conservatively like me, anyway!). But weekdays (and
nights, if you've got good headlamps) are a blast with the combo of
straightaways and twisties. 84 is more of an Autobahn experience... and
apparently, this guy <http://www.katu.com/news/3637156.html> thought he
was on the Bahn!
