We arrived last night at the Paulina Lake Campground. Wow. Why haven't we camped here before? This area is beautiful and we've explored it quite a bit on other trips but until now hadn't camped here. It's gorgeous. And for a Forest Service campground…holy moly! This is our spot: And…

As we were heading south on I-5 today, up ahead on the right shoulder there was a car with an open-bed cargo trailer pulled over, a young lady standing by the side of a car, and her male companion running back for something. All I could see on the side…
2 CommentsNot a lot to say, really. Home is lovely. Being on the road is lovely. After being away from the Pacific Northwest for a month…returning to such intense and prevalent GREEN, everywhere is a bit of a shock. In a good way. I think we'll be doing some Oregon trips…
Comments closedJust got back from a walk on the edge of the lake. There's a nice marina and it looks like a great lake for sailing. We are definitely coming back here. Here's a shot down the road in front of our campsite. Spots are really pretty and wooded and not…

4 CommentsKOAs are the Starbuck's of campgrounds, aren't they? We do have a view of the lake (river?) right out our window though: And they drive around and pick up your trash right from your campsite. Kinda great for a one-nighter. Heading for Yreka/Ashland/Medford/Rogue River tomorrow…depends when we leave and for…
Comments closedOne more winery (we swear it's the last one)…Gregory Graham (totally worth it). Only open on Saturdays and Sundays or by appointment during the week. Greg greeted us as we came in…super nice guy. Tasted several amazing wines and left with a case of Zinfandel. Greg says the zin has…
Comments closedSomehow we've completely turned this road trip into the wine tasting roadtrip. Yesterday we decided to backtrack down the twisty windy Highway 29 to a couple places in Calistoga that we passed when we weren't really in a position to stop with the trailer. Calistoga is such a cute town,…
