An RV is a wonderful thing -- believe me! We snatched Bryan from Davis to share Oregon's beauty and outdoor adventures with him. A great week with a bit of everything to please us all.
We hiked the Green Lakes trail with Bryan and then set off to explore Bend.
Enroute to Bend we watched a group of racers from the Senior National Cycling Event whoosh by us. We had to stop while they rode on; all except one poor hapless guy who managed to ride his bike right into the first stopped car. Um....
Not 10 minutes later and a bit closer to Bend, we had some weather. As in hail. Lots of hail. Inches of hail. Sure glad to be in a car and not on a bike!!
Finally to Bend we jumped on a tour of the Deschutes Brewery. A wonderful time that wraps up with plenty of tasting!
But that weather was putting a damper on our spirits so....we opted to drive south and east. First to Klamath Falls and then over the Cascades to Ashland. In Ashland we found a county park with RV hookups -- because here we needed the AC not heat! We explored the town of Ashland, known for its theaters and professional productions. Lucky us--we saw two plays: The Heart of Robin Hood and MidSummer Night's Dream. Both productions were in the outdoor "round" theater. Both were absolutely wonderful and such a contrast from the typical camping experience.
Back now to Davis -- sorting out gear and figuring out the next adventure!
