What you do when you retire

Still in Crescent City and just left another cheese makers shop


Cresent City Habor

Breakfast view


Oregon caves

Lunch time


Another free gambling night

So tonight we're in Crescent City in the rain and see $20 in free gambling money at the Elk Valley casino here in town.  So away we go each armed with $20 on our Elk Valley members card.  So after a couple of hours of fun we left with $50 of their money.  That is because we continue to get the payoff for each time we win. 

So we paid for tonight's dinner we had at a Thai restaurant and tomorrows lunch (breakfast is fee at the hotel).

Also got our annual flu shots today.  What interesting activities for a vacation??

The Oregon Caves are fantastic - suggest you all go and stay in, or at least eat in, the Chateau there.

Pictures start at the "Lost Coast", then to Ferndale, onto the Klamath River basin and finally to a wine tasting place here in Ashland.

About 20 years ago Susan worked for the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).  One of the city housing plans Susan reviewed was for the City of Ft Jones.  So 20 years later we visited the city.  Its in a beautiful valley about ten miles west of Yreka.
