Where I stayed
We headed north from Redding this moring. First stop was the Shasta Lake Dam, where we had an excellent tour of the facilities. We were the only ones on the tour so felt like a private tour to us.
From there we headed north on Interstate 5. Saw a huge fire along the highway and actual flames right beside the highway on the other side of the freeway as cars/trucks were passing by.
We saw Mt. Shasta all the way along I 5 until we turned off on Highway 97 to Klamath Falls, Oregon.
Very scenic along 97 with rolling fields, migrant workers. We stopped at a rest area for a picnic lunch and enjoyed a freight train from Canada passing by. Area reminded us of the mid-west with rolling plains, but mountains in the distance.
