In all the years I've lived in the area, I've never been to the Galesvillereservoir.
If I was a true sort of a blogger I'd read all of the signs around the reservoir and had some history and statistics to quote. Sorry, that's not me. I like pretty pics.
Once you pass the lake the road turns into this as it crosses a small set of mountains and falls down into the South Umpqua watershed where it eventually comes out on hiway 227, also called the Trail- Tiller hiway.
If you've got a day its a very nice drive and really not all that far to go .
Sunset beach again.Look at that blue sky, in October no less, can't beat that!
A photo from our daytrip to Coos Bay.
Sunset State Park.
Road trip today, not really a pleasure trip, but we'll enjoy it anyway.We gotta go to Coos Bay to get grandma some groceries. Her fridge died and everything spoiled, altho the oldest stepson is over there he's unavailable to grandma. It's a shame, I'd say we raised him better than that, except that we really didn't raise him, his dad did.Actually, both boys seem to have forgotten that they even have family, that is until they need money or some other help. I may sound upset with them, I'm not, I remember being exactly the same way. It seems to be part of growing up.Anyway, YEAH, for day trips!
You may have noticed both Ms.Lea and my blogs have motive names, guess why? Yep, we like to go for a ride.
Last Tuesday we went up to a local lookout that I had never been up to, it's called Onion, Mountain. I was rather disappointed, albeit unsurprised to find out that they close the gate at the top of the road so you can't get there by car. Normally not a PROBLEM. This time it was. It was 6 p.m. by the time we got there and getting ready to be dark, so we didn't want to hike up. I didn't get to see the view from the top, nothing new for me!
I did get to see some other vistas tho. If you'll look for the white smudge of buildings in the distance. That's Merlin, home to Ms. Lea and myself and the menagerie. Kind of a cool sunset view, I think.
Oh oh, Baby in a dish.
We blew it! When you moved here, we'd had the males fixed, but being that the females are a lot more to have spayed, we put that off. We got here and in a months time it was apparent that there was a male somewhere around, as a couple of the females began to fill out.
So here we are six months later rehoming kittens.
It's not all bad, we only have four left to go, and they've been a hell of a lot of fun to watch.
For instance here's a photo of a kitten trying to alert me to the fact that they're water dish was empty.
Communication!
