Our little hike

We took a nice hike the last day of the trip.  All of us were Pretty hung over and none of us got to shower with a five hour drive the day before.
We were all happy that we didn't skip it.

Stop 13 (last!) - Ice Axe Grill / Mt. Hood Brewing

Oh, I have no photos of this!  Well it happened and I am now regretting the garlicky salsa on those nachos!  Evidently I like amber beers, their Root Beer is dee-licious (thanks for sharing Brad!), their Oatmeal Stout is pretty darn tasty (D's choice) and Neil reported the Pepsi fountain is properly mixing soda water and syrup.

Smith Rock State Park

Repentance for our recent debauchery was found in a ~4 mile hike up, over, and around a big hill.  What a beautiful place, a lovely day, and great company!

Sleeping, night 3

Neil to Derrick: you got a kick in your future.   What Derrick hears "you got a dick in your future".

Very Blue Lake

We stopped at Crater Lake on the way to Bend. I took way too many crappy phone pics. Here is one.

Derrick added more camera phone pics!  Goodjob derrick!

Ignore the grammar

for those fearing after reading derricks confuso english, we did make it back the house.  one growler and much poor choices, but safe

Stop dozen - silver moon

Derrick like mango and Porter.  Brad like pilsner and Ryan is beating him down to live mango.  Ryan love mango.  Neil live lamp.

Stop 11 - Crux

Oh my fucking god, the beers!!
If I had to choose two if say the peated scotch and the Porter.  Neil like all but choose light skinned the most this time.  Ryan is being difficult and days none of them hit him but he liked the "smell".  He's a dick.  Brad liked the double cross and lager which upsets Derrick for dinner reason.
Derrick: Brad can't eat a damn sandwich.

Stop 10 - good life

It's OK.  I think our favorite beers were guest taps.  Anderson valley pumpkin beer.  Ryan was cool with the house IPA cause it's less ipa-ee.

Bendy bend

Made it to bend, first beer o the day.  Good life is a bit disappointing, not sure how to add to that.  Off to 10 Barrel next, with wide eyes and empty bellies.

A stop along the way

Taking 66 back to Medford we stretched our legs at a view point just outside of Ashland.k

Derrick: crazy cyclists flying down this crazy road.

Yreka! Now away from Yreka

The lost android has been located.  Oh R2, not that way, you'll be breaking down in no time.  Now, fully pocket-device e  quipped, we are pointed at crater lake, with bend beyond.  Thanks wild river.  Derrick has popped the clutch and told medford to eat its dust.  woo!

Next steps

We'll soon be "bugging" out of Klamath Falls on our way to Bend via a short stop in Medford to pick up a lost phone. That'll make for a fair bit of driving but we're prepared; this is what we've been training for!

Stop #9 - Klamath Basin Brewing and The Creamery

A brewery. A restaurant. A tasty end to the night.

Now what?

Now what?  Now I scream at the stupid internets for losing my long winded wordy post.  Not re typing it.  Cliffs notes are that Medford was hot, beer was good at a couple spots (yay) brad lost his phone (boo) and we aren't quite sure where the day will take us.  The crud wireless at the hotel is pissing me off, so I will hold off on more until a later time.  Thanks whiffee, you are on the coal list

Stop 9 - creamery Klamath falls

Good bar , big tasters and right next to the maverick hotel so win!

Derrick liked vanilla Peter and IPA.  Neil of course like brown and brad and rush liked it when I put jalapeños in the blonde.

Lucky Neil

Decided to make things special for Neil since we're sharing a room tonight.
Rose petals and lovely note.

Stop #8 brick town

Sooooo many IPA.  Very good.  Neil likes brown.  Derrick likes them bitter and sour.  Brad likes the gingers.  Ryan has a tongue for the ipa .

Second night hotel

Neil failed us for hotel picking.

Stop #7 - Walkabout Brewing Co.

Yum. And a tour! The group favorite is the Jabberwocky Strong.  

Derrick says: Ryan told the bar tender that his "partner" was glutton intolerant and that they were always looking for good option.  Totally sounded gay.
