2016 Oregon Road Trip Day 4

Up early, Sharon and Tom headed back to Sacramento. They had lunch in Ashland. They made a quick stop at the New Clairvaux Vineyard in Vina. Tom is a wine club member there. They were back in Carmichael before 6 pm. It was a long day covering more than 460 miles.

Sharon and Tom made a previous trip through Oregon to Gonzaga in 2007 [To Gonzaga, Continuing Towards Spokane and Finally to Spokane]. The entries for this year's trip are here.

2016 Oregon Road Trip Day 3

In the morning, Sharon and Tom hiked along the Row River Trail. They headed into town over a couple of covered bridges. Sharon noted that it paled in comparison to Lithia Park in Ashland.

In the afternoon, Sharon and Tom stopped at the Iris Winery. Afterwards, they continued to the King Estate Winery. Tom is a wine club member there. They picked up the wine club shipment and then had dinner in the restaurant. The drive home from the restaurant was an adventure. They found themselves in an odd mixture of fog and rain.

They spent a second night at the Village Green Resort.

2016 Oregon Road Trip Day 2

Spending the morning walking in Lithia Park, Sharon and Tom got a late start. They made one stop at the Hillcrest Winery outside of Roseburg. Sharon and Tom really enjoyed this stop, including talking to the owner. From there, they continued on to Cottage Grove. They will be spending two nights at the Village Green Resort.

2016 Oregon Road Trip Day 1

Sharon and her brother Tom are off on a road trip to Oregon. They made a previous trip through Oregon to Gonzaga in 2007 [To Gonzaga, Continuing Towards Spokane and Finally to Spokane].

Leaving Carmichael about noon, they hit some winter weather on I-5 above Yreka. They eventually made it to Ashland. They finished the night with dinner at Amuse. They spent the night at the Ashland Springs Hotel.

I can't remember the last time I was in Oregon. It may have been almost 35 years ago...
