I Made It to Oregon!
But first, on the way out of Weed, we stopped at the Living Memorial Sculpture Garden north of town. It's a sad memorial dedicated to veterans of all conflicts.
This one was beautiful - entitled "Coming Home."
I'm not sure how the flute player and dancers relate, but I joined in.
Before I left, I noticed one of the statues was trying to hitchhike out of there.
My first stop in Oregon was Klamath Falls. We took a little hike along the river to see the falls.
There they are! They might have been better before they built the dam.
The trail was pretty scenic.
A leaky wooden pipe ran from the dam down to an old generator. It looked like a flower garden.
And there was lots of wildlife along the way. A turtle sunning himself -
Cormorants posing nicely -
A Great Egret -
And oops - watch where I'm walking! THE END!
I like the turtle. Fascinating creatures. And the yard art!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures
ReplyDeleteLove the sculpture garden, especially your pose and the hitchhiker.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you are having a wonderful trip. My memory of Weed California is a trip we made from Washington to California at Christmas one year. When we reached Weed the roads were closed because of heavy snow. We spent the night sleeping in a church with about 300 other stranded people :)
ReplyDeleteI'll never forget it.
Happy to have found your blog again. Lost you when I had to change computers.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures looks like a wonderful place.
Some of my favorite water birds. Surprisingly, I haven't yet seen a turtle while RVing. That guy was a beauty. Beautiful place. :)
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the sculpture garden, and the rapids..and all the critters!!That pipe looks like it will soon become a rapid of its own..happy travels
