Klamath, CA to Port Orford, OR

From the redwoods, we made our way to Klamath, CA.  We enjoyed the drive up the CA coast with its variety of scenery.

The cloud patterns were interesting, and the water fascinating as usual.

When we got to Klamath, we parked right at the river in the Golden Bear RV park.

and enjoyed this view from our front window...

Our first afternoon was quite glorious;

the next a bit soggier.

Our drive into Oregon was uneventful and soon we were spotting bits of coastline that seemed familiar.

There's Humbug mountain with a hat of fog,
our first view of Port Orford,

and the beautiful Scottish broom.

Soon enough, we were parked and set in our lighthouse host site with a lovely view our the kitchen window.

We arrived May 28 and worked the 29th in the afternoon filling in for another volunteer.  We attended Rotary on Thursday, then had some time to settle in before our official orientation on June 1.

In my next post, I plan to include more of the beauty that surrounds us here and additional information about our responsibilities.  Our trip this spring has been smooth and enjoyable, unlike last year's stress prone journey.  As Jim is fond of saying, "it doesn't all have to be bad news!"  We have had a wonderful trip and look forward to our time here at Cape Blanco State Park.
