Last year a bunch of us went on the first Southern Oregon Tour, SOT. It was the first weekend in October and the weather was perfect for touring. On Friday we gathered at the Riverside Inn in Grants Pass and had some refreshments, went to a nice Mexican resturant. Saturday we went on a tour of the Applegate valley, stopped at the Valley View winery and then on to Jacksonville for lunch and a shopping possibility for the gals. Jacksonville is an old restored gold mining town, quaint I think is the word. We drove back to Grants Pass for dinner and music at the "Happy Clam" in GP.

Sunday, most of us kept the tops down and drove up th Crater Lake N.P.
for lunch and rubber necking, great time.

A few of us have expressed interest in doing something like that again
so if the late September, early October time frame looks good for you let me know if enough of you are interested and maybe we can continue the tradition.

Fire back a response, yea or nay, to see if we have enough to warrent
having another one.

Okay Bruce, you know I'm in for this one. Have you ever driven the road to Galice? Really fun. We could go down that then take a jetboat down the river to Hell Gate, eat a fabulous meal, take the boat back and then hop in the cars again. Guess we could say we went to Hell n back...

I'll help you scout out a few more nice roads. You picked great ones last year.

And I promise to fix that smoking issue with my car so that it doesn't embarass you guys again. (and embarass me...grrrr)

All right!!!! count me in for the 2nd annual sot. Great country a lot of eye candy. That boat trip sounds like fun Angela, and I'll follow you if no one else will. I don't mind a little smoke. I am a chain smoker you know. I even have a little motor oil in my blood it won't bother me in the least. Bruce if I keep coming up for these side roads you guys know about I may have to move up to take addvantage of those great rides. You can always count on me to take a drive. I'm really not that far away . I only made two fuel stops on the way back, I just cruised along enjoying the drive. It was down hill all the way.
