Is there a scenic drive Portland to San Francisco?

Yes, I was just about to go for Thanksgiving weekend, but change of plans. Now...I don't remember the names of the highways. But there are two ways. First...you can take the main hwy which ever that is. It's more public and too many cars. So forget about this.

But the one that many people have talked about is the highway that's right on the edge of the coast. You would drive as if you were going to the beach in Oregon and then I believe you would take the exit of the beaches that are more towards the south. That whole road is very beautiful and it will take you directly to San Fransisco. Right on the edge. So you could probably research or look at a map to see which hwy or road that would be that is right on the edge of the coasts from Oregon all the way to San Fransisco.

I hope that helps.

Why is cement called Portland cement?

In 1824 Joseph Aspdin, a British stonemason, obtained a patent for a cement he produced in his kitchen. The inventor heated a mixture of finely ground limestone and clay on his kitchen stove and ground the mixture together into a powder to create a hydraulic cement-one that hardens with the addition of water. He named the product Portland cement because it resembled a stone quarried on the Isle of Portland, off the British coast. With this invention, Aspdin laid the foundation for today's Portland cement industry.

What amusement parks are at Oregon?

Sorry, Oregon is lame when it comes to amusement parks, we have none. In Salem (about 50 miles south of Portland) there is a weak "amusement park" with two waterslides and a couple rides for little kids. It is called Thrillville and can probably be googled. But if you are planning a trip to Oregon in hopes of an amusement park, plan something else. However, at the end of May-first part of June, the Rose Festival comes to Portland. It is a carnival full of rides, games and naval ships. It is cleaner than most carnivals and is suprizingly fun.
