Early Signs of Spring ~

Yesterday, it hailed here in the Rogue Valley.  Just when everything is bursting back to life, Mother Nature reminds us that she is in control.  But as we start to dust off and ready ourselves for the 2014 season, we are surrounded by some of the finest offerings of early spring.  It's a beautiful time to visit Ashland.

November in the Rogue Valley ~

 “Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.”  

 

 ― Lauren DeStefano

Fall Color at the Farmer's Market ~

We strolled through the Farmer's Market in Ashland and came across such beautiful fall colors.  September and October are fabulous months to visit southern Oregon.  

Lake of the Woods ~

Just an hour from Ashland you'll find beautiful Lake of the Woods.  It's an easy drive, just head north on Hwy 5 - exit at Crater Lake Hwy - and then watch for Hwy 140 toward Klamath Falls.  It's a pretty drive though green valleys with majestic Mt. McLoughlin ever present.  

Just recently, a family staying with us asked for a suggestion as to where they could go to get in the water and splash around in an attempt to cool off from the baking summer heat.  We sent them to Lake of the Woods and they loved it! 

The resort has been in operation for 91 years - they have cabins available for rent and a camp ground

The lodge restaurant and bar

The back deck is a great place to have lunch and enjoy the view

Yummy!

The 4th of July ~

Who doesn't love a small town parade, right?!  Especially, in an eclectic town such as Ashland, where just about anything goes and diversity is embraced.

The colors of the day were Red, White & Blue and a grand 'ole time was had by all!
