Medford and Ashland
On the way down from Crater Lake we
drove through the forest and saw tree after
tree down. This was a big one, root ball and
all.
There were hundreds of these poles all the
way down the mountain. We assumed they
helped the snow plows find the edge of the
road and measured how deep the snow is.
There is a peace of silver duct tape at nearly
top of the pole-it is at least twice Mom's size.
Leaving the park.
Tuesday night we drove to the Medford Temple to make
sure we could find it and wouldn't be late for our 9:30 session
the next morning. It's a good thing we did - it took us a while to
find it. But look at that sky. If we'd had our old camera, we
could have changed the F-stop and gotten a clear pic of the temple
and the sky. Mom thinks the cloud looks like an elephant!
Wednesday morning. It looks just like the temple in Palmyra,
except the windows. The windows in Palmyra are unique.
It sits on a piece of property adjacent to the meeting house
and an outdoor pavilion. No bigger than the lot the meetinghouse
sits on. It has every essential, no wasted space - beautiful!!
Back corner of the temple in the shade. It was a fun morning.
Thursday we took a tour of Harry and Davids - the factory,
the orchard and the store. It was very fun and very impressive.
Notice the pear on top as the weather vane.
Stirring the popcorn into the candy mixture for Moose Munch.
We bought you all a bag and we're trying to figure out how
to mail it to you! Yummy
This was taken through a glass window so it's not very clear,
but they are covering some of the Moose Munch clusters in
chocolate. It sure smelled good in this part of the factory!!
We wandered around Ashland on Thursday before our
play that evening. We even found a pair of "Keens" for Dad!
This was called a "green show" outside, before the plays began.
It was an Irish group. Fun music, and they were VERY good.
Friday on the way home we stopped at the KR drive-in
in Rice Hill for some ice cream!! Check out their website
to remember their fun rules: http://krdriveinn.com/Stupid_Rules.html
There was plenty of space to throw the football around!
Yummmm!!

Tunie! I'm so proud of the size of your HELADO! I hope you finished it :) Although I must say I'm a bit jealous ;-) And I'm glad you were able to go to your future employers, to negotiate your salary of course!
I like the up close picture of the two of you at the temple-so cute.
And the day time temple picture could definitely looks like a professional photo, one they could use on lds.org for sure. Glad you guys had so much fun!!
Looks like you guys had so much fun!!! I'm jealous off rice hill! Love that place.
That picture at night of the temple is so pretty.

What did you see in Ashland? We were there in June. I love Ashland. We also visited the Medford temple for a couple of sessions. Loved it! Worked on our mission blog tonight! Check it out at http://philipandkristine.blogspot.com/
