July 12: Drew Creek CG to Valley View Vineyard (Harvest Host)

We're here at Valley View Vineyard west of Ashland, Oregon. We camped here last night (with our Harvest Host memberships). Lovely lovely!

We bypassed Crater Lake (not enough time) and headed 3.5 hours (from Lakeview) to Valley View up and over some incredible forest from Kalamath Falls down to Ashland - then up the I-5 and over to the Applegate Valley. 

Here's a link to Valley View: https://roguevalleywinecountry.com/wineries/valley-view-winery/

Today, we're headed past my old haunts (from 30 years ago!) past Oregon Caves National Monument - stopping at a swim hole along the way - enroute to the Redwoods in northern California and then up the Oregon Coast. We'll camp north of Brookings (near Arch Rock or wherever we can find a place to boondock) and then tomorrow meet up with Sara and Will after 4 p.m. at Beachside State Recreation Area...

Cantrall-Buckley park on the Applegate River. Cold! 




The winemakers





Dave Buckles and Michelle Reyna and family (from Ashland) came to visit, play, have wine. Lovely!

(SARA's photos and) Kristi's trip back through Oregon coast (Aug 3-11)

 Some of Sara's photos I need to organize in the other days' posts...  The mug shot is priceless!
