Monday 25~~~~ After our morning coffee and giving Mike a haircut, we left for Canyonville to the Seven Feathers Camp ground. We always stop there on our way through for a couple of nights. We like the pool and we usually have it to ourselves. Not many people use the pool in the winter time or maybe I should say not many older people use the pool. I am really enjoying the pools in all the campgrounds we stay in and I am not afraid of the water anymore, I do a swim stroke the length of the pool and back many times with my noodle to help keep me up in the deep water if I get tired. Kent will finally let me stay in the pool alone now that I am doing so good. Maybe by the time we retire from the road, I will be a swimmer!!!!Today is Thresa's birthday, I called her and we had a nice visit. Tuesday 26~~~~ We walked from the campground to the casino, so that was a nice hike. The weather has been cold and rainy most of the time here. Wednesday 27~~~ Today is Williams birthday, I called him to wish him a happy day, he was driving so I didn't talk to him very long as with this new law of no talking on the phone while driving, the ticket about $170 is pretty steep. Friday is Pammy's birthday, so we sure do have a lot of birthdays this week. We have been concerned about the weather since we left home in Salem, we were really lucky as the "Siskiyou's" pass was clear with little snow when we went through today, they had a duzy of a storm while we stayed in Eugene. Our son in law Mike kept us posted by calling his family who live on both sides of the pass, so we knew it was going to be clear when we left today unless another storm moved in right behind the last one. We are leaving for Corning, California in the morning, it is about 247 miles away. We want to cross the "Donner Pass" while the weather is holding out.
