Sisters, Oregon

From one of our favorite NP’s – Mount Rainier – to one of our favorite golfing spots and RV parks – Sisters, OR.  Time to move on again and perhaps get a little blue sky?!?!?

Quackers LOVED the blue sky and water en route to Sisters, Oregon.

Magic LOVED the very nicely maintained Sister’s Garden RV Resort.

 

Sisters is just outside Bend, OR with a population of a mere 2,000.  It takes its name from the nearby Three Sisters mountains – which can be seen framing many of the holes on one of our favorite golf courses here – Aspen Lakes (played 2 of our 3 golf days!). The town has a quaint little Main Street with all the prerequisites – Dairy Queen, Pizza place, farm stand AND an ACE Hardware Store;-)!!

There was a hiking day wedged in between the three days of golfing – and it was an excellent hike to see Tumalo Falls along Tumalo Creek – with a little blue sky to boot!

97 feet of power ..

…and more at the Double Falls.

Can she get across??

 

Thanks to one of our golf playing partners, we learned of a very cute, out-of-the-way restaurant that would have escaped our radar otherwise.  The last night in Sisters was spent at Kokanee Cafe in Camp Sherman (about 20 miles from Sisters).  Camp Sherman is nestled on the banks of the Metolius River in the Deschutes National Forest.  It is truly ‘adult camp’ and the Kokanee Cafe was good food in a very friendly environment – –

Nice out of the way dinner spot – the Kokanee Cafe.

These old time gas pumps were at the Camp Sherman General Store.

 

Never seems like there is enough time – but, after a full week in Bend it was time to move on.  Next stop is Ashland and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival with fiends Priscilla and Steve.  The Saturday morning drive was just what we LOVE – a narrow, windy, scenic road with NO traffic – –

A ‘green dot’ road with no one but us;-)

 

Off to more new experiences and parking spots in Ashland.  See ya soon – –

Elizabeth & Gary searching for more new adventures;-)
