Yesterday I drove the motorhome 198 miles from Wimer, Oregon to Anderson California.

 

I spent the last eight days parked at Mary’s rental property. It is under contract to be sold and is scheduled to close by Thanksgiving. During this time, Mary, myself and a local gal by the name of Susan whom Mary hired had been really busy getting rid of the furnishings and doing cleaning.

 

The house is now empty and clean…

Along the way I passed Lake Shasta…

 

 

 

 

 

Arriving at Anderson, I parked in the back of VFW Post #9650 where they have a 30 amp electrical outlet…

 

 

 

 

 

The usual dinette window photo…

 

I’ll depart here later this morning.

 

I’m expecting to arrive at Mary’s home in central California around November 9th. I’ll depart November 27th. While there, I’ll do routine maintenance, minor repairs and major cleaning of the Bronco and motorhome.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed the photos.

 Yesterday was a mostly sunny and 71 degrees.

Yesterday I drove the motorhome 187 miles from Florence to Wimer, Oregon.

 

 

Wimer, Oregon… is 13 miles north of Rogue River. It’s the location of Mary’s rental property which has recently decided to sell. It’s currently under contract and scheduled to close in about three weeks. She arrived yesterday and will be selling off some of her furnishings this weekend. I’ve stopped by to give her a helping hand.

Most of yesterday’s trip was om Interstate 5…

As always you may left click upon an image to see an enlarged view and then click once again to see an even larger view…

About one mile from Mary’s home…

Mary has seven acres…

My parking spot…

The usual dinette window photo…

 

 

I expect to be here for several days.

 

 

NOTE: THE INTERNET SIGNAL AT MARY’S LOCATION IS VERY WEAK AND VERY, VERY SLOW. HENCE, I WILL NOT BE PUBLISHING ANY MORE BLOG POSTINGS UNTIL I LEAVE HERE. SO, DON’T WORRY ABOUT ME IF YOU DON’T HEAR FROM ME FOR SEVERAL DAYS.

The covered bridge in Wimer, Oregon has a 10,000 pound load limit. The motorhome weighs 16,000 pounds so I have to take a different route around it…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE PHOTOS.

A Look Around Rogue River, Oregon

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

Yesterday I drove the motorhome 20 miles from Wimer to Gold Hill, Oregon.

Along the way, I stopped in Rogue River.

 

 

Today’s subject…

 

Rogue River was originally named Tailholt.

The Tailholt Legend…

In the early days, gold seekers forded the Rogue River, often swimming across by holding onto the tail of their horse.

Woodville: In 1872, John Woods built the first framed house in the area. It served as a stage stop, post office and rooming house. Soon there emerged a thriving community commonly called “Woodville”.

Rogue River: It wasn’t until 1912 that the community was incorporated as a city and officially named Rogue River.

 

 

Here are some of the photos that I took yesterday in between raindrops…

Yesterday I drove the motorhome 180 miles from Wimer to Florence, Oregon. I’m parked at Thousand Trails South Jetty RV Resort.

While in Wimer at Mary’s newly constructed second home. I had no Internet signal for five days. The first four below photos are from Wimer which I didn’t get to publish while there…

As always you may left click upon an image to see an enlarged view and then click once again to see an even larger view…

 

 

 

Lots of wild turkeys…

 

 

 

I took this from the dinette widow of the motorhome. On the other side of the barbed wire fence belongs to a neighbor. Mary gets to enjoy this view for no charge…

 

 

 

Deer abound in this area…

 

 

 

A young buck still retains his heavier winter coat…

 

 

 

About the first half of yesterday’s trip was on Interstate Highway 5…

 

 

 

Then about 20 miles on Oregon Highway 138…

 

 

Then about 30 miles on Oregon Highway 38. Here I catch weekenders returning from the Oregon coast…

 

 

 

Here’s my camping spot…

 

 

 

And the usual dinette window photo…

 

 

 

I took this photo out of my bedroom window at 10:45 PM last night. It’s of the night sky lit only by moon glow behind the trees on the right. It has not been altered in any manner…

 

 

 

 

I’ll depart from here on May 23rd.

I hope you enjoyed the photo!

 Yesterday was partly cloudy with light rain showers and 61 degrees. Forecast for today is partly sunny and 61 degrees.

Nicolaus, California To Wimer, Oregon

Because we have 4,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.

Yesterday I drove the motorhome 313 miles from Nicolaus, California to Wimer, Oregon.

I’m now at Mary’s other (new) home were construction is nearly finished. I expect to be here one week and depart on March 17th.

 

 

Note: Due to a very low Internet signal here (one bar 1X), I’m having real difficulty loading photos…so you only get two today…the header of Mt. Shasta and Mary’s seven grassy acres below. She has a worker arriving tomorrow to cut the grass. Unless I find a way to improve my Internet signal, I may not blog again until I reach my next destination of Florence, Oregon on May 17th.

 

Mary has several neighbors watching over her property when she is not here.
