We will start out with a little quiz. Remember the Happy Cows come from California ad? Well, can you spot the "happy cow?" On the other side of the coin, can you tell if any of these cows are the "Chick-fil-A cow?
Wednesday found us leaving Yountville and we headed south then east then north. We figured that was the best way for the motorhome to travel. We left California. passed Mt Shasta,
The highest peak in California and arrived in Oregon. We found our campsite at Grants Pass, Oregon, settled in to a lovely campsite. Not sure what we will do, but the owners of this campground gave us lots of info for the area.
We awoke early Thursday morning, and Tom called a local place for a lube and oil change on the RV. The appointment is for Friday at 1:00 so we have the rest of the day to tour.
On the way to Crater Lake Ntional Park, our road winds along the Rogue River. We cross it many times and find a couple of neat spots to pull over. One spot Charley thinks might be nice to go down to the rushing stream. When a leaf blows she backs away and barks. Then she gets a little to closer to the stream and bam, in she goes halfway up - good thing she was on a leash. Tom pulled her back to safety.
We coninue up to Crater Lake. Wow!!! What beauty. This is where a volcano erupted many, many years ago. The center of the volcano colapsed and now there is a beautiful lake. The water is clear blue, just like the Aegean Sea. The growth around the rim is old trees and of course the National Park Service lets mother nature take care of herself. Our hats should go off to President Teddy Roosevelt because he was the President who started preserving the grounds of the National Park System. Carter Lake is in the Southwestern part of Oregon. The scenery was something to behold. I think if you ever get the chance you should visit this wonderful National Park. Tom will post some pictur
es and I hope they to it justice.
