Re: Washington and Oregon drives
Highway 101 along the coastline. If in the portland area, you can try the "old columbia river highway" that takes you around the columbia river gorge. It will also take you by Multnhoma Falls. It's beautiful scenery, and pretty windy roads too.
Can't think of any more off the top of my head, but I'll think about it and let you know more.
Damn, I miss that area

Re: Washington and Oregon drives
If you want a really good drive with lots of turns, you need to go down to california. There's a stretch of highway 299 between highway 101 and Redding, CA that is nothing but turn after turn after turn after turn after turn after turn...
You can check out the redwood forest off of highway 101 and when you get back to I-5, north of Redding you can visit Lake Shasta, Mt. Shasta and several beautiful areas just off the highway. If you go that way, let me know, I grew up in southern oregon and have taken several trips down that way. I can give you a few ideas.
Another option is Highway 20, between Albany Oregon and Bend Oregon, or Highway 26 North of Bend up to the Mt. Hood area. It's a decent drive, not really twisty, but it has some spots.
I love the stretch of Highway 58 between Eugene and a little town called Oakridge. If you keep going south of Oakridge, you will get to Willamette Ski area. There's also "Salt Creek Falls" off of Highway 58, about 30 miles (roughly) south of Oakridge.
Ok, so I could go on and on. What part of Oregon/Washington do you want to drive? Narrow it down and I might be able to come up with some better ideas.

Re: Washington and Oregon drives
Isn't there a Pacific Highway along Puget Sound by Seattle? The drive from Seattle to Spokane I heard is nice.
The highway along Oregon coast is also a nice drive.
If you are in British Columbia, Canada, the sea-to-sky highway from Vancouver to Whistler is one of the best as long as there are little traffic. Whistler will be hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics so it's well worth checking out.
