Squaw Lake
Photo taken in September of 2004
Not far from Ashland is Squaw Lake, a cute little place which is usually devoid of people. The shores were covered in butterflies the day we visited.

Fire Station No. 1 is now five years old.
The New Theatre
Photo taken in August 2008
The New Theatre at Oregon Shakespeare Festival isn’t all that new anymore. I think it has now been around for six years, but it is still called The New Theatre. One of these days someone will buy the naming rights or they will name it after someone I suppose.
Pioneer Street
Photo taken in August 2008
Lots of signs in this one. We’ve got heraldic banners, the last phone booth in town, the Ashland Chamber of Commerce, a right turn on Pioneer gets you to OSF, and a place to park (if you are really lucky or are willing to pay). You can also get to my house by taking a right here (and then a left, right, right, and left).
Applegate Lake
Photo taken in August 2007
To the west of Ashland lies Applegate Lake (sometimes referred to as Applegate Reservoir). There are some good biking and hiking trails around the lake.
Near Fish Lake
Photo taken in July of 2007
The above picture is from a spot near Fish Lake, just east of Ashland, in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. There was a nice little trail that we road our bikes on, but you could also hike it if you wanted to. We didn’t see anyone else until we got to the resort area of Fish Lake.
Ashland Springs Hotel

Some Ashland landmarks–Shakespearean banners, Varsity Theatre (home of the Ashland Film Festival), and the Ashland Springs Hotel
Hank the cat
Another contribution from my daughter. She took this one in April of 2007. My daughter is a pet lover. I am not. Every chance she gets she volunteers to watch the pets of others while they are out of town, etc. So this is “Hank,” a cat of a friend who spent a couple of days and a night at our house. My only memories of Hank include his walking over my face during the night while I was trying to sleep and the dozens of pictures my daughter took of him.
