After shoveling snow yesterday and this morning we are on our way south.
To get the Motorhome out from behind the house I shoveled snow out of the street for a couple of hours on Tuesday and an hour this morning. It was 34 degrees last night, if it had been 36 all night enough snow would have melted and I wouldn’t have had to shovel snow this morning. This was the largest February snow fall since 1923. We had a foot on the ground. Tanya has two feet plus more tonight.

It’s a Rest Stop night.
Portland is supposed to get some freezing rain late tonight and in the morning so I wanted to stop early to ensure we got a spot for the night. Looking at the weather report I think we are far enough south to miss the ice.
Current plan is to go out to the coast to Reedsport and south along the coast. The Siskiyou’s do not look like a friendly place.
Update:
7:00 pm 2/13
Rest Stop just south of Portland 240 miles today and 183 to the Big House tomorrow.
Got here after dark so no campsite picture

Nice sunny day 187 miles.
First day of our fall trip. We are headed to northern New Mexico for a couple of weeks fishing and than Albuquerque for the balloon fiesta.

Tomorrow will end just this side of Boise, ID. I have mapped out five days of driving and we have until September 11th to get to Cottonwood Campground on the San Juan River just below the Navajo Lake Dam.
We are here to see the Spruce Goose airplane. They let folks boonedock in the parking lot for two nights, so that is what we are going to do.

This is the same rest stop we spent two nights at on the trip south, other side of the road of course.
This is the campsite picture because I didn’t want to go outside and get my iPad wet to take a picture. Watched a little TV however kept loosing the signal because of the heavy rain.

We are staying at an Escapees Park in Sutherlin, Oregon – Timber Valley.

All the sites in this park are owned/leased by a park member and are rented out to other Escapees Members when the owner is out on the road.
