Big Run

 I am a little behind on the blog. We've moved from Grants Pass, OR to Durango RV park in Red Bluff, Ca for a one night stop. It's a KOA park that is too expensive to stay long at $75 a night. We try to avoid KOA parks. But, the funny thing is, we went to another KOA park in Verdi, NV. It's just outside of Reno. We had a really bad site that was hard to get into and wasn't level at all. The only cool thing was a good bar close by. Sasquatch Tavern the food was really good. Lois came over and went to lunch with us.

Peggy had some seafood thing and I had Chicken Marsala and Lois had the Bigfoot Burger. All the food was good. We might have to stop here again just to eat at this place again. 

Sasquatch photo bombed me in the bar.

Back at the park, Peggy spotted a bear just outside the park down in a canyon. He was huge.

This is the bear canyon right next to the park. That is the Truckee River flowing by.

After Verdi we went to Hawthorne, NV and stayed two nights at Whiskey Flats RV Park. We stop here often. It's the nicest park on the way down 95. 

It was really smokie from all the wildfires here in the west.

We lost a seal on the back axle of the truck again. This time on the driver's side. Luckily, there is one shop here in Hawthorne that will work on big rigs. I had the rotors replaced a couple of years ago and I think the guy that did it, didn't torque the nuts right.

So now we are in Wine Ridge RV Resort in Pahrump, NV. It's a high end park with two pools.

They grow grapes here in Nevada. That is just crazy.

Back Online!

 We just spent the last 2 week OFFLINE! The first week we were in Gold Beach, OR at Oceanside RV park. It had very little cell phone and internet service. We will never stay there again. The only thing we found in Gold Beach was a good bar and a nice Brewing Company. The bar was Hunters Creek Bar and Grill. The food and beer were very good. Right next door was the Arch Rock Brewing Company.

It was windy and cold here and the park was not all that nice. Dirt roads.

Katie and I went down to the Rogue river to watch the salmon fishermen on the river. 


Arch Rock Brewing Company ice cold lager!


We had to get some to go!

The next week we were in Crescent City, CA at Redwood Meadows Rv Park. It was an OK park but they had almost no cell phone service and NO internet service. Not much in Crescent City to see or do. The one restaurant we went to was to go only. We had to eat in the truck.

It was in the harbor in town.

Saw some sea lions in the harbor.


We met a nice, little pug, Bean. Just 10 weeks old.

We are now in Grants Pass, OR at The Rogue River Overnighters RV Park. We have a nice 70 foot pull thru site. The best thing of all . . . we have cell and internet service! The drive here was a little tricky on 199. About 80 miles of winding and crazy road.


Our site in Grants Pass. We have been to Grants Pass before and we like it here. Nice Little town that has everything.

Guardrail, then 800 feet down! This might have been the scariest road we've been on. I just rode the yellow line and hoped no one was coming the other way and was doing the same thing.
