It has been a busy past two weeks. I left Washington and crossed the Columbia River into Central Oregon. The plan was to spend some time exploring the eastern part of the state before heading west towards Bend. The Oregon Trail meanders through this area and it got me thinking about how the early settlers […]
I have heard of Electric Avenue. Electric Ladyland. Even Electric Light Orchestra. Now I can add Electric City to that list. OK, time to put your thinking toque on. Which of the following is not true regarding the Grand Coulee Dam? 1. It is the largest hydropower producer in the United States. 2. It generates […]
This post finds us visiting a few choice campgrounds in Washington State. First up is Rainbow Falls State Park near Chehalis. Wrapping up my respite in Oregon, I rambled down to the beach to watch my last pacific sunset for some time. It was well worth it. I couldn’t pick a favorite picture so here […]
In the northern part of California the Pacific Crest Trail veers west from Mount Lassen to link up with the Southern Cascades and on into Oregon. It passes through Castle Crags State Park. This spot is mentioned in the book “Wild” by Cheryl Strayed. In fact, I had just finished reading it and was curious […]
And our photographer thinks about adopting a kitty. It can get lonely being on the road alone all of the time. I find myself getting involved in lengthy talks with, well, myself. At least I am assured of having an intelligent conversation. One of the topics I brought up to myself involved acquiring a pet, […]
To paraphrase a hit song from last year, it’s all about the beach, not the campsites. Here is a view of the campground. Literally, the sites are little corrals. Sites 1-79 are, with a few exceptions, classified as basic tent sites and run $23 winter/$28 summer. Rotating 180 degrees from that picture above is this […]
In 2014, our campground photo tour covered 19 states, 20,000 miles and hundreds of campgrounds – mostly in the south, along the east coast and northeast. This year we’re planning on photographing the remaining state park campgrounds in California. We have about 9 more to photograph and a few others to update. By May, we’ll […]
After leaving the Roosevelt Lake area in AZ I drove through the Superstition Mountains to McDowell Mountain Regional Park near Fountain Hills. There are 76 sites available and I parked in number 5 as the sun went to bed. This park is known for excellent hiking and biking with miles of trails. The sites are […]
For some reason Arizona reminds me of old songs by the Eagles. Take It Easy, Peaceful Easy Feeling, Tequila Sunrise, and of course Desperado. They conjure up images of the stark desert in my mind, broken up by the occasional oasis of green. And prickly things. While almost all the vegetation in the desert can […]
Yep, I am back in the Lone Star State for another visit on my way west. I enjoyed one final sunrise at White Oak Lake in Arkansas before hitting the road. I visited 8 state parks in the last 10 days starting with Ray Roberts Lake. It turned out that there are two different areas […]
