Hi Kate,
Great to hear from you.  I have been tweaking the itinerary for a couple of 
weeks now........ I am going to have to change some motel reservations 
tomorrow.  As of now we WILL be coming through Oregon on Tuesday, October 
3rd and staying that night in Grants Pass.  We will be leaving Seattle that 
a.m. and I guesstimate according to the info in the road atlas that it will 
take about 7 hours of driving from Seattle to Grants Pass???  Perhaps we 
can meet you two somewhere for dinner.
Peggy.
