Day 11 - Nov 17

Spent last night in the 7 Feathers Indian Casino RV Park near Roseburg, OR.  Absolutely first rate beautiful park. Know I disappointed them in that I did no gambling.  Only went to the Casino for the Buffet, which was only OK. It's hard to measure up to Las Vegas style casino buffets. I was tempted to stay for the MoTown Musical Review but it didn't start until 8 and I would be breaking my rule of not being in bars after dark. Before dark is OK.

                                               There were beautiful walking paths by a creek.

Spent the morning on hwy 199  from Grants Pass to Crescent City. I was a little afraid there might be ice but decided since I hadn't seen any ice yesterday morning and it was the same temp this morning I would give it a try. No prob and extraordinary views coming thru the Redwood Highway.
Thx for the suggestion of the route, Kev!

The main house but no one came out to greet me.  What if I had wanted to buy something?!

Love poking around and exploring places like this.

The scenery is so beautiful.  I don't remember being this interested in the scenery when we came thru here on our honeymoon in 1962  headed to the Seattle World's Fair.

But this I do remember, Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. I have this same photo in our honeymoon album from half a century ago.  So of course some of Bob's  ashes had to be resting here. He would be pleased.  This trip has been so healing for me.  Grieving takes strange turns as some of you know.  For me seeing these places again has given new meaning to all those years we spent together.
