    Prospect, Oregon (definitely cooler!)

    August 11, 2020 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F

    Woke up to a beautiful morning in Orland, the heat of the day was still a couple of hours away. Slow morning...gas fill up at Pilot, which conveniently offers Cinnabon rolls! Coffee and a warm, icing covered cinnamon roll later we were back on I-5 north. We stopped in Redding to see the "full size" Sundial Bridge over the Sacramento River, (especially important since Clarke is creating his own garden size sundial), then on to the city park in Mt. Shasta to see the headwaters of the Sacramento River. Nice cool spot for RV lunch, and a beautiful nursery right up the street. Even this far north the heat caught up with us...(I always like this drive with views of Shasta Lake, Mt. Shasta, and forests.) Left the park and drove on through Medford, took Hwy 62 to Prospect, Or. Finally feeling a change in temperature. Nice park, Crater Lake RV Resort, pretty full! But parked in lots of pine trees! No cell service, and Wi-Fi is "down" due to squirrels chewing the wire...better than a forest fire!Read more
