Saturday Feb. 21/15 - The Pacific Northwest once more

On the road view of Mt. Shasta

We headed out as soon as we woke as it was a little chilly. We stopped in Susanville and had breakfast at “The Lumberjack” restaurant. Once again we chose the road less travelled - the I-44, transferring to the #89 all the way through Trinity Shasta National Forest, through Mount Shasta and into Weed,CA.

Once more some fantastic scenery with many a “Kodak Moment”. Here, as so many other places in our travels we also saw the results of many a devastating forest fire - just remember to be careful!

Miles of devastation due to forest fires

We stopped for diesel in Weed and a snack next door at McDee’s. We followed the signs into the Semi & RV parking behind it and to our surprise there was a Winnebago “View” (sister to our Navion) with BC Plates! We had an apple pie & drink and then came back outside to meet Neil and Jackie from North Vancouver in their Rig. We talked a while and then we both headed out - us North and they luckily South to Santa Barbara, promising to keep in touch.

"Navion View"

At Weed, we joined the #97 heading North into Klamath Falls, OR. and continuing on it to Bend, OR. where we stopped at Starbucks for Kyla’s Mug and then up the road some few miles to a rest stop for Shepherds pie dinner and a good nights sleep.
