Bend to McMinnville

On Tuesday of this week we left Bend, Or. and drove over to McMinnville. As I had said, the place we stayed in Bend was very lovely. I think it was the nicest RV park that we have stayed at on this trip. Although it rained for most of the weekend it was still nice.

McMinneville is in the middle of wine country here in Oregon. Today we went to several wineries and tased some very nice wines, and even bought a couple of bottles!! John tells me that this is really adding to the cost of the trip, but he picked out some good wines for himself also. The weather today started out overcast but as the day went on the skies cleared and the sun came out and it was beautiful. The hills covered with the grape vines are so pretty in the sunlight. Tomorrow the weather is suppose to be about the same, cloudy and cool in the morning and sunny and warm in the afternoon.

We are going to search out a couple of more vineyards tomorrow then leave here and head over to the coast and travel down the coast line for about a week. I hope to get some more pictures for you.

I hope all of you are enjoying the last days of summer. We are having a wonderful time!

Until next time. Love you all. Candy and Johnny
