Day Three, 2023 Road Trip/Cruise   2 comments

On day three, we leave Nevada and head to California. So far the road conditions are good with a
minimum of delays. We had never been to this part of California, so we were taking in the scenery
when I spotted a beautiful snow-capped mountain through the trees. Soon we pulled over to get a better view,
which happened several times as we headed north to Oregon.

Before leaving Northern California, we pulled into the Weed Rest Area — a part of me could not pass it up.

Our next overnight stop was the Hampton Inn in Medford, Oregon, where we had some wine food at the Inn.

Can’t pass up a free meal during our long trip.

“When I first caught sight of Mount Shasta over the braided folds of the Sacramento Valley,

my blood turned to wine, and I have not been weary since.”

— John Muir, 1874
