Good news, Wes had a decent nights sleep, phew. He did wake at 6 am this morning and was in some pain but after a top-up of painkillers (which Wes told me did not help at all) he was feeling better and nodded off to sleep.
This left Peter and I with a couple of hours of lovely peace and quiet with two little boys sleeping like babies.
By 9.15 am we had packed up the motorhome and we were leaving our home of four days, Gold Hill and were back on the road, again.
We followed the Rogue River for a short while to Grants Pass (which we will return to for Wes follow up appointment next Tuesday) and then back through the Siskiyou Mountains into the Illinois Valley.
A short break for a food shop and lunch in the strange town of Cave Junction, where a proportion of the townsfolk appeared to be a fan of weed…
Back on the road and across the border returning into California.
We drove along the beautiful winding Highway 199, through the stunning Redwood Forest, stopping at the Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park for a lovely walk along the Simpson Reed Grove Trail.
Back on the road and back across the border again into Oregon and onto North US 101 towards the Oregon Coast. Our destination, tonight the Beachfront RV Park in Brookings and the campsite is overlooking the gorgeous sea.
On arrival at the seaside RV Park we set up camp and Wes and I had a nice walk along the coastal path. It is always lovely to be close to the ocean.
A nice walk to the seafood restaurant Catalyst and then back to the RV Park to enjoy the gorgeous views of the Pacific ocean of Oregon.
