On The Road to Spring Training – Wednesday February 13, 2019

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:

Hermiston, OR Rest Stop – Tuesday September 4, 2018

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.

Stopped at the Garcia’s on our way through the Tri-Cities.

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.
