Route 199, Oregon and California
Monday, August 7, 2017 I had to go back to Grant’s Pass to get an awning wheel I lost and had shipped. This is the third time I have driven this road and it is just as good the third time. From west to east, you start in the Redwood National Park. The drive is…

Exploring The Chetco River
Sunday, Aug 6, 2017 My intention was to fish the Chetco River for a few hours and just see what kind of trout were there. My plan was to take the South Side Chetco River Road and fish across from where I had hiked The Oregon Redwood Trail. I packed lunch, snacks, water and the…

Crissey Field State Park and Redwoods National Park
Friday, August 4, 2017 Amazing that you can travel 100 miles west of Medford and find daily highs of 67 degrees and low of 50 at night. Perfect! I headed down the long, curvy road out of Siskiyou National Forest. There are some great cottages along this road that I would love to photograph, but…

Fishing Rogue River with Steve Crisler
Wednesday, July 2, 2017 I met Steve at Highway Products/Pavati Boats at 5:00. He was excited, saying they had been doing well the last few days, and he expected us to have a great day. I appreciated the enthusiasm. I hadn’t been doing well fishing, and I was getting tired of the heat. It was…

Bybee Creek and Crater Lake
July 30, 2017 Steve told me to fish Bybee Creek below Crater Lake, so that was the goal of the day. I got an early start, well-stocked with food and water. You would think with GPS in the truck and on my iPhone, it would be easy, but it wasn’t. I needed a good topo…

Fish Spring Creek and Visit Klamath National Wildlife Refuge
Friday, July 28, 2017 I walked down to the Williamson River below the campground and took some pictures. I found a huge Black Huckleberry bush that was loaded with berries. There were also bushes everywhere with Red Currants. I quickly filled a water bottle with them. The Ponderosa Pines are so pretty. I can only…

Work Day
Wednesday, July 25, 2017 Oil changed at Airport Buick GMC. They were great, Bob being my connect person. Poor internet, so I couldn’t do all the things I wanted while I waited, but was able to post. Went to three post offices before I was lucky enough to find my package from Airstream Supply. Went…

Train Mountain Railroad Museum
Thursday, July 27, 2017 I fished the Williamson River for two hours from a rest area along Rt. 97. No fish bothered to even look at anything I had. Back at the parking lot, a gentleman asked where I was from. Smoking a Lucky Strike, he told me he was from Bend, about a hundred…

Errands and Move
Saturday, July 15, 2017 With no available campsites in Valley of the Rogue State Park, or anywhere else around Medford or Crater Lake, I needed to move by 1:00, but first I had a bunch of errands to run. There was a farmer’s market in Medford. I needed groceries, a haircut and to do laundry.…

Interstate 70 West
Write-ups in previous post. At the top is Boot Hill in Ogallala, Nebraska. Love the statue. Below are the Bonneville Salt Flats
