Stephanie and Archie go to Oregon

On October 9, 2014, Archie and Stephanie set off on an exciting adventure to visit Stephanie's boyfriend, Matt, in Beaverton, Oregon. The trip started off with a walk from the building Wham at SIUC to Stephanie's apartment. Then Archie and Stephanie drove to SIUE in Edwardsville, IL so Stephanie's sister could take us to the Lambert-St. Louis International Airport so we could finally start our journey to Oregon. Once we boarded our plane in St. Louis, we flew all the way to Seattle, WA. Once we were in Seattle, we had to wait for a small plane to take us to Portland International Airport where we would finally see Stephanie's boyfriend. Archie and Stephanie were exhausted after all that traveling! On October 11, Archie, Stephanie, and Matt went to Hillsboro, Oregon to visit the Roloff Farm from the TLC show, Little People, Big World! They were all so excited, but especially Stephanie and Archie! We took a tour of the Roloff's property and even got to meet the Roloffs! (Archie was a little shy, so he did not want his picture taken with Amy Roloff). After an exciting day at the farm, we decided to go see the house where the movie The Goonies was filmed! Although we could not go inside the house because someone lived there, we were able to get our picture taken in front of the house. We were so excited!! Our trip was not over yet but Archie was getting very tired from all the traveling and sight-seeing so he stayed inside until it was time to come back to Carbondale, IL.
