    Interstate 5 in Washington (I-5) is a 276.62-mile (445.18 km) highway in the U.S. state of Washington that extends from its border with Oregon to its border with Canada. Serving the cities of Vancouver, Kelso, Chehalis, Centralia, Olympia, Tacoma, Seattle, Everett, Mount Vernon, and Bellingham, it is the main route between Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, British Columbia.

    It is the only interstate to traverse the whole north–south length of Washington, but the undivided highways U.S. Route 97 and U.S. Route 395 do also. I-5 is also the only north–south primary interstate highway in Washington. The road is the busiest in the state; an estimated 240,000 motorists use the road daily. The second busiest is I-405 at 201,000.

    Route description

    Vancouver to Tumwater

    I-5 enters Washington at the Interstate Bridge over the Columbia River between Portland and Vancouver. It initially heads north through Vancouver and intersects SR 14, the first segment of SR 501, and SR 500 until the interchange with I-205 in Salmon Creek, where the freeway begins a turn to the northeast. I-5 closely follows the alignment of old U.S. Route 99, and in some locations the US 99 alignment has become I-5. The interstate passes the Vancouver branch of Washington State University. Southeast of Ridgefield, the highway intersects SR 502 and the second segment of SR 501 before continuing north along the Columbia River to Woodland.

    Interstate 5 in Oregon

    In the U.S. state of Oregon, Interstate 5 traverses the state from north to south, passing through the major cities of Portland, Salem, Eugene, and Medford.

    Route description

    Beginning with the section about 3 miles (4.8 km) north of the California border, the highway runs from 4,310 feet (1,310 m) Siskiyou Summit, the highest point on I-5, through Oregon's southern mountains and towns such as Ashland, Medford, and Grants Pass. Past Roseburg, the mountains turn into hills, and as it reaches Eugene, the road enters the Willamette River Valley. At Eugene the highway intersects with the short Interstate 105. The interstate then heads almost due north, skirting near Albany and Corvallis, and passes through Salem. There were plans to build a spur into Salem, called Interstate 305.

    In the Salem area, placed in the median near mile marker 260, are signs noting where I-5 crosses the 45th parallel. It bears the words "45th Parallel - Half Way Between the Equator and North Pole".

    Sweet N' Sassy

    by: i5

    I am all-girl,
    In this boy's world
    But that's okay 'cause
    I don't think of it
    In those terms
    I just give 'em mine
    Don't even think 'em twice
    When it comes to what I do
    I make my moves right
    And even though sometimes
    I may seem kinda shy
    Don't let this impulse
    Let me feel like
    I don't care why
    I'm a sweet and sassy girl
    I've got what it
    Takes to change the world
    Holding on to what I believe
    I'm in control of my destiny
    I just keep it real
    I always know the deal
    No matter what they say
    It don't affect
    The way I feel
    I see nothing wrong
    With having a little fun
    When I want someone
    Don't hesistate to
    Turn him on
    That's just the way I am
    Most people don't understand
    Secretly they wish they
    Could be just like me
    I'm a sweet and sassy girl
    I've got what it takes
    To change the world
    Holding on to what I believe
    I'm in control of my destiny
    I'm a sweet and sassy girl
    I've got what it takes
    To change the world
    Holding on to what I believe
    I'm in control of my destiny
    Sweet and sassy you see
    No gravity or anybody
    Will hold me back from
    What I truly believe
    There's no stopping me
    I'm a sweet and sassy girl
    I've got what it takes
    To change the world
    Holding on to what I believe
    I'm in control of my destiny
