Today’s photo comes from yesterday’s hike along the Rogue River. This place is just an hour and 20 minutes from my home, but it took me 21 years to find it.

October is obviously the best time for this trail. Park at Woodruff Bridge and head south on the Upper Rogue River Trail.

My wife, of 29 years and counting, celebrates a rather significant birthday today. Today’s photo is from her “happy place”, about six years ago.

Five summers ago we rafted the Rogue River from Galice to Agness (and somewhere along the way today’s photo was taken). A year or two before that we did Grants Pass to Galice. This year we did Trail to Grants Pass, with plans to do the last section between Grants Pass and Galice canceled by the Almeda fire.

Rogue River

My Monday Rogue River rafting group is still going strong. Unfortunately, I missed a Monday due to illness. The good news is I’m healthy again. I didn’t have Covid-19. I think I was infected with something via mosquitoes when I tent camped for the first time in many years.
