Hope it doesn't happen again as I enjoy that drive and it is only an hour or so from the house.

Who knows? I once crewed on a boat, out of sight of land for several days. But that was on the "Spanish lake". Never got sick, but the up and down corkscrew motion became tiring. I have an idea...come out here, and I'll direct you to the twistiest paved road in Oregon. So twisty that trucks with trailers are banned, simply because it's physically impossible for them to negotiate the turns at any speed. You should come in mid July through mid August though. You may find the road blocked with snow, entry gates blocked at any other time.
On the other hand, for the sake of Oregonians who know? Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned this road. Jack would enter, never leave...
