Aug 23-26 Slow road north to Oregon

Burney Falls
Lost Lake

We decided to take the scenic road so made it all the way to Roseburg, OR over the next four days withoout getting on I-5 for more than 5 miles.
First stop was Burney Falls State Park in northern California
We hit I-5 for five short miles near Mouth Shasta where we found a nice pull-over spot for lunch on our way to the Klamath Lake area of Oregon.
We stayed a a nice National Forest campground at Lake of the Woods near Klamath Falls.
After sixed night with no electricity, and being out of practice dry camping, we ran our batteries too low to pull in the slides, so we enlisted the help Art, some random guy who was cam ping nearby and VERY helpful getting us back on the road with advice of where to go for service.
After a short no-pay visit to an RV service shop we were on the road again and drove a short distance to Joseph W Smith State Park on a Rouge River reservoir 
where we had a nice electric hook-up site and enjoyed a beautiful sunset 
over the lake through the trees.
I enjoyed a nice three mile walk to the lake in the morning before we moved on a short distance

to Rouge Elk Camground  - 
a Jackson county park right on the Rouge River.
where we had a peaceful afternoon picnic and river sit.
