We woke to fog – real murky fog.. So we packed up and headed south:
The fog lifted as the day went on:
We went past trains:
And lumber mills:
Farms:
Pastures:
And into the smoky mountains:
Yes, that is the smoke from the forest fires:
The distant mountains looked bluish:
That is I-5 below – we went up and down the mountains:
Going south and inland, the skies started to clear:
Goats! :
Check out that house on the hill:
We arrived at our good friends’ house. We met Larry and Peggy in Alaska in 2009 and have stayed in touch ever since. We would always try to get together in the Yuma area each winter. It has been six years since I have seen them both and we are really looking forward to spending their birthday weekend with them. Peg’s birthday is tomorrow and Andy and Larry’s is Sunday. Yep, they have the same birth day in the same year. We always tease that they are “brothers from a different mother”. LOL!
So stay tuned and enjoy today.
Stats for today:
Miles Traveled: 234 Miles
Routes Traveled:
Oregon: Cherry Avenue; I-5; OR-234; OR-62
(Note and FYI: Many of the travel pictures that I take are done at 55-70 mph out the front windshield or the side window in a very bouncy truck. Some/many may not have clarity, however, I post them for me and for you so I can record what that part of the country looks like and for my memory.)
