I-5 in Northern California approaching the Oregon border

I did this drive just a few days ago, but this photo is from this month last year. I think things were even greener this year, but the sky wasn’t quite as dramatic. This photo was taken less than an hour south of Ashland.

Stout Grove in the California Redwoods

On our way back from three nights in Gold Beach on the Oregon coast this past weekend, we stopped off in Stout Grove for the first time in over eight years. We went there probably 10 times during our first 12 years in Ashland but haven’t had the chance recently.
