Day 15
A wonderful morning, waking up in a bed I know does not have bedbugs, and Carol's homemade coffee cake and fresh fruit awaiting me downstairs. The day only got better.
Medford has a wonderful family owned business where one can order soup, sandwiches, buy loafs of the bread made on site, and other odds and ends. We have eaten there many times. Our plan was to pick up sandwiches and take them to Steve's (Carol's son-in-law) parents house on the Rogue River. What a day! Their backyard has a beautiful green lawn, a hammock, a wood swing, and chairs all overlooking the river. It is bliss to go there. We enjoyed our lunch, caught up on family news, and relaxed for a few hours.

When we returned I took a nap and George cleaned the bike. Carol cooked for our dinner at her daughter, Tiffany's home. Tiffany and Steve are both veterinarians. They live in a beautiful home with their 9 year old son Owen, their dogs, Shasta, and Wellington (aka Welly Jelly), and their cat Lewis. Their neighbors, Buddy and Deanna, brought their grandson, Phillip, for dinner. The boys swam, the men BBQ'd, and Carol and Tiffany put on a feast. Steve had recently gone to Alaska with his father to fish and he brought back over 160 pounds of different fish. Dinner was excellent. We always feel so welcome at Tiffany and Steve's home.
We returned to Carol's ready for bed and prepared to get up and leave early tomorrow.
Happy Birthday Frances! I hope all your wishes came true!
Tomorrow, home.
Good night Medford, Oregon

I always eagerly anticipate you visit with your Medford friends. Your descriptions always feel like a soft place to fall, and I usually wish I was there with you there. We have great Medford friends too.... maybe it's just what living in that area makes ya feel like. Thanks for adding the pix--loved seeing them all. Welcome home!
