One the road again. YeeHaw! Headed to Ashland and the campground at Emigrant Lake. Beautifully kept park with nice big sites and lovely views of the lake. Took several long hikes and bike rides in Lithia Park and along the Bear Creek Greenway while we waited for Erik and Jenn. They arrived on Saturday and we had a great couple of days with them exploring the city and the area. Sunday night we had tickets to a wonderful performance of Hamlet. It was set in modern day. The lead actor was terrific and we enjoyed it.
From Ashland we headed down I-5 and Hwy 89 to Lassen Volcanic National Park. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate as it was cold, foggy and rainy the three days we were there. We did get to see some of the geothermal activity and toured the visitor centers. Drove the park road and planned to hike Bumpass Hell but it was 33 degrees and so foggy you couldn't see so decided it would be another time. Definitely want to go back.

One afternoon we drove to MacArthur Burney Falls state park. Fabulous walk in the sunshine to the falls overlook and then down the trail to the bottom and the lake area. Beautiful 2 hours! The trees were yellow orange and green. A shy heron was fishing along the banks of the creek. Just terrific.
