Extended RV Trip – Down Into The Fog
Extended RV Trip – Down Into The Fog
We left off the other day parked at the 7 Feathers Casino with the troublesome electrical problem in my parents 5er (5th wheel) finaly solved and fixed. Nothing like a good nights sleep and the excitement of a new RV travel day to get you moving in the morning with a BIG smile on your face.
My folks told us not to eat breakfast this morning as they had something special in store for us. So, with only the morning coffee to quiet my stomach and the sun shinning away, we sucked in the slides, raised the jacks and headed out at a reasonable 9 am. Well, it’s very reasonable when you are not tied to a hard schedule and you are traveling for pleasure.
Breathtaking was all I could think of as I watched in awe as Mother Nature painted the valleys in fog.
This was taken just south of 7 Feathers in Oregon on I-5 headed towards the Sisqyous. It was cold and we were just under the ice fog as we departed that morning.
The Fog Above Us
And yes, that’s my parents 5er in front of us.
The Surprise
Like I said, we didn’t eat breakfast so it wasn’t long and my stomach was beginning to protest it’s miss treatment. The good news was that just off I-5 on Exit 89 in Oregon was the best surprise you can treat your family too. Just a little over 30 minutes south of the 7 Feathers Casino and RV park you’ll come to:
The “Heaven on Earth” Restaurant and Gift Shop.
If you have never stopped at “Heaven on Earth” you are really missing out. They’ve won lots of awards for their apple butter and apple crisp.
While breakfast is our favorite meal there (I love the Potato Medley) all the meals there are fantastic. What’s more, the free crisp samples (apple, merion berry and pumkin spice today) are larger than many full size servings! The cinnamon rolls are the size of a layer cake… we’re talking HUGE!
Of course we had to try them all! Mmmmmmm.
Sorry, I got side tracked. But it’s sooooo good I just had to tell you about it.
RV looking out over the fog
At any rate, after breakfast, we headed up the hill and when we crested the first top… there it was. The valley was covered in a thick blanket of fog and we were on top headed down into it.
Beautiful or what??????
We pulled off the road and took a few photos so we could record just a little bit of the beauty.
Next, it was time to head down into the sea of fog…
RV headed into the Oregon fog
Things cleared up pretty fast and the temperatures were warming rapidly. We ended the day in Redding CA in 77 degree weather and sunshine. It’s sooo good to be out of the cold.
I’m going to stop here for now, we’ll take you through our first Truck Wash experience with the motorhome next time. Until then, here’s the FREE Digital Scrapbook Elements for you this week:
