- The RV tent spot I stayed at last night – I have really seen a lot of these old Hippie Buses, this one is for real. The fellow a little older than me is sitting in the bus door step, smoking a joint, talking about how he used to go to the music festival before the wheel cylinder blew out on the bus. Now he is painting the bus – Classic.
- Into Cave Junction.
- Fall Colors are starting to show
- More fall in the Illinois Valley
- This deer is in the parking lot of Ray’s Groceries, stopped for a cup of coffee and met Fred Greenfield who bought. Fred gave me a short scenic route to Jacksonville. He is retired from 30 yrs with United Airlines, lives near by and is a wonderful fellow to talk with.
- The daughter of the owner came down from Idaho to help her Dad get the farm back in shape. She lives off the grid with her 4 children, and husband- wonderful person to talk with and learned lots of good down home common sense things. Reminded me of Amy and Brian a little, just good solid folks.
- Here much of the food crop land is being converted to wine grapes – just as many areas I have been through from Texas to Alaska. Funny how I get a sense that perhaps we are turning out food producing into wine and fuel. Grapes and Corn.
- I thought I might have picked up a thorn – turns out the tube was coming through a worn spot.
- Made it to this county camp ground just before dark – fixed the flat and hit the sack after a 53 mile day.
