Water and Vows Celebrated in California

Reg Spittle Leave a comment

Plumas County in northeastern California hosts treasures for outdoor adventurers. One of the most spectacular, and easily accessible, is Frazier Falls.
When you visit, check out nearby Plumas State Park for camping and for its indoor/outdoor gold-mining museum.

Sue and I discovered the area when we celebrated the wedding of our son, Brad, and our new daughter-in-law, Ashley. Rounding out our family photo are Brad’s twin Chris and his fiancée Gail as well as their older brother Andrew and his wife Leah. A great weekend, indeed!

Trails Abound in Ashland’s Lithia Park

Reg Spittle 2 Comments

Ashland Creek roars through Lithia Park, where I walk almost daily on my way to many choices of hillside trails in Ashland, Oregon. The creek is fed by snowmelt from our local ski resort, Mount Ashland. I am fortunate the park is just a few minutes away from my front door as I try to stay in shape for Sue’s and my longest trekking challenge yet. More on that to come!
