So long Klamath...Hello Irrigon

We had a great dinner with a few of the guys from the Klamath Hatchery just to say good-bye and hope to see all next year. Donna and I will miss working with the crew and the wonder bird life in the area.

             Greg, Joann, Regen and Donna having a wonderful farewell dinner.


After adding 15 lbs of pressure to the tires I had to say adios to the rest of the crew, Rich and Gayle. I was surprised that the tires had only lost 15 pounds pressure in the last 8 months.


Willy Nelson has a great song that seems appropriate..."On the Road Again".


We took it easy on the way up to Irrigon and stopped on the Columbia River, right across the river into Washington, at Maryhill State Park.  From what I have seen so far...these state parks (Oregon and Washington) are clean, landscaped, secure more spacious than some of the private RV parks.  


We always toast the fact that we have accomplished one leg of the journey safely and hope for many more.


Some of the sites at Maryhill are right on the river...we were very close, but our site was about 100 yards away.


The next day we have made it to our post at the Irrigon Stealhead Hatchery on the Columbia...and of course this calls for a toast!
