K-Falls Weekend

Drove over the Cascades today to visit some friends back in Klamath Falls. When I got up to around 4,000′ there was snow on the pines and at 5,000′, the road had minimal shoulders because the snow banks were a couple three feet high. There was no snow on the roads, because the temperatures were above freezing so they were just wet.

Between getting off I-5 south of Eugene and before I got that high, along the way I stopped and took pictures of all the 5 Post Offices that are along OR-58.

Tomorrow I am going to take a couple hundred-mile drive to capture a post office that when we lived in K-Falls, I thought was a California PO because that is what Google says when you type in the address, but turns out it is physically located in Oregon. I have no idea what the folks in New Pine Creek, California do for their post office, use the Oregon one with a different Zip Code or the same Zip and a different +four. I won’t know and can’t ask the person behind the counter inside because it’ll be Sunday it isn’t open.

This will still leave one last post office in this neck of the woods, the one in Crater Lake Nation Park. It is located at the visitor center, while it is open I’m not so sure if I could get the Miata, with its all-season tires, up there. I’ll plan another trip down to Klamath Falls in the summer for another visit and catch it then.
