July 4 - Oregon Caves


Another scorching day – fantastic. Our campsite is in shade all day but the air is so hot it still heats up the trailer a fair bit. The boys loved having the A/C on. Rob and I decided to explore the Oregon Caves, while Mike and Ant stayed home to read and chill. Although the caves were only 50mi away, the road became narrow and windy for the last 40min. We both felt quite car sick by the time we got to the caves. The 100min tour was lovely. We then followed a trail and got a great view of the valley below. We only got home at 5pm. Mike had been kind enough to take Rocky for a romp at the dog park. We cooled off in the camper while watching a dismal DVD. We finished dinner just before it got dark. Fireworks were being ignited everywhere. Rocky did not seem to mind too much. The boys and another young kid fired off a whole lot of fireworks down by the river. I went to see the display at the fairgrounds. I was pleased that the campground was so quiet.
