After leaving Bend, we stayed in Oregon for a couple more stops. The first was in Klamath Falls. Here we stayed at the KOA. I should have been worried when the lady at the counter handed me a paper on midges and told me a bit about them, but I wasn't. I did worry later but all and all they were not as annoying as a fly or mosquitos. We stayed in Klamath Falls for 3 days. We rode the trolley around the town to see the historic buildings. We rode through the historic cemetery where 3 children who had died in a Japanese balloon bombing were buried. There were no waterfalls in Klamath Falls bunt there was a large lake. Unfortunately, it was not really used, we only saw two boats on it while we were there. The reasons ran from algae to too shallow.
We then proceeded to Ashland, Oregon. This town is known for their Shakespearean plays. Although, we did not go to any of the productions, we did see the pre show. We also toured the town and Lithia Park. We had wanted to do the jet boat up Rogue River but they were sold out the day before. Instead, we toured the towns in the area and we went to the Oregon Vortex.
