We’re off like a herd of turtles.
Day one of our journey covered a staggering 170 miles from Bend to Ali’s beautiful family farm outside of Medford. The farm has been in the family for just under 100 years, and strolling around the property is a step back to how things used to be. Llamas, horses, pigs, and kittens all roaming about on the 100 acres. We had a fantastic dinner courtesy of Ali and her mom from the garden followed by wine from the neighborhood.
Thankfully, unlike every other farm (and many busses we will be on in the near future) this one lacks roosters and chickens, so sleeping in was not a problem.
After another quick tour of the farm we headed to the winery to sample a few glasses and eat some home grown fruits. After our third scrumptious meal in 12 hours, we figured we should hit the road, so we did just that. Right now we’re on I-5 headed to Downieville, California (pop 325) to ride some fantastic singletrack.

That pic of Brig in the staircase lift is sweet! I could have used that on our S. Sister hike!
