Fires

No picture today, not yet anyway!! We had to evacuate Carson’s farm today to get safe from the fires. It was not the California fires, a fire had started in Ashland, just about 15 miles from Carson. It was BAD. James and I were at the laundry doing clothes and you could just see all the smoke coming over the mountains. By the time we got back to the farm cars were lined up to get away. They had I-5 shut down and hwy 99.

We got the RV packed up and headed out around 4. We drove nw to seek clean air. HAHA!!! Anyway we made it to Grants Pass , got the rv dumped at a station, I called all hotels and campgrounds. ALL FULL!!! I asked one of the clerks what was going on, lol, they were evacuating all towns within 20 miles of Medford. So my last call , talking shit to the clerk at the Best Western in Rogue River, I said, do you mind if we park in your parking lot!!!

So we are in the parking lot at Best Western in Rogue River City. Pretty cool, lots of camper trailers here. Nothing can be found. People are coming from Nevada, California and Oregon.

We are safe and should be ok.

Hugs to all and to all a good night!!
