We entered Oregon within the first few miles today.
Our route for the last week or so has been in eastern California, in the shadow of the Sierras and later the Cascades. We're glad we chose to come that way; cool weather, beautiful terrain and little traffic on the roads.
We were aiming for Bend today, and having trouble arranging a campsite because we're heading into a summer weekend. But we finally did get a callback from an RV park north of Bend.
Although there were still low, round mountains around us, the valleys were very wide and more fertile than we've seen. Large scale truck farms.
We ended up north of Bend, near Sisters, named for the three prominent mountains nearby. The RV park is about twice as expensive as we're used to. But they have a pool and spa, the whole place is landscaped with flowers, they pick up trash at the curbside every morning, and they even have room service- if you want firewood, for example, just call the office and they'll bring it to you. Silly.
A rooster has been crowing since we arrived. I wonder if it will get any sleep tonight. Or if we will.
