Day Four - Frenchglen

So...day four. We didn't do much of anything. I drove to Burns (60 mi. N) to get my prescription. The trip I took is close to the one for day five, so I'll write about it then.

Michelle spent the day fighting skeeters and running the dogs. We both had a quiet day, me mostly reading and she crocheting and knitting. She got a few books in Klamath Falls that kept her occupied. We enjoyed the sunset on the Steens. All in all a good day.



In case you didn't notice there is no Internet in Frenchglen. Supposedly there was a wifi hook-up via the local school, but apparently they don't trust their three students and have some kind of filtering software they disallowed me accessing even Google. I am posting from another spot.




Frenchglen Hotel is nice (if you can avoid or don't mind skeeters), particularly the back cabins. The dinner is exceptionally good (though a bit on the pricey side). They also serve an excellent breakfast and lunch.







Michelle here, JB just doesn't mention all the good bits...if we had come two weeks later, there would most likely NOT be any mosquitoes...we were early and I've been paying the price...37, I think...it's so hard to count when they're all bunched together and swell into a gigantic mass of itchy redness...ARGH!

I thoroughly enjoyed our quiet day...playing with the dogs (Peaux loves the sprinkler!), knitting, crocheting, Lego Indiana Jones on my Nintendo DS, a walk to the "General Store", and enjoying a thunder storm from the comforts of our room. It was wonderful.
