We are parked in the Casper Beach RV Park just South of Ft. Bragg. I put the bench together last night and played a little. The bench works great. We leave Ft. Bragg Saturday for parts of Oregon, not sure where because of fires.

Looks great Ken, bet you will have some interesting conversations with the other folks in the park.
Good luck with the fires. The whole west seems to be burning. Looks like the zombie apocalypse here-can barely see across the street today...

I was up in the Eastern Sierra (near Mammoth) over the weekend and everybody ended up with red eyes and a cough. The was also an "apocalyptic" level of smoke on Hwy 108 (from the Summit Complex of lightning-started fires) on the road back down.Originally Posted by Christopher Charles

Looks like fun, my wife and I were considering moving to Fort Bragg. A little too remote for our medical insurance needs.
Especially if you are into late night mortise chopping.Looks great Ken, bet you will have some interesting conversations with the other folks in the park.
In southwest Washington the sun light and sky has been kind of salmon colored from the smoke, but at ground level it is okay.
Now that Labor Day is past the campgrounds should be starting to empty out. There is a contingent of folks with post school age family that comes out for the last hurrahs of summer.
How far north are planning on traveling?

Chris,
Coming up they closed I-5 just North of LA shorty after we passed through, it's good to be lucky.

Jim, Portland will be it this year....I'm putting MsBubba on a plane to U.K. On the 17th.

Ken, I would advise you go far north towards Washington or maybe the northern coast, here in Eugene / Springfield area the smoke is horrible. Myself and most of my coworkers have nausea (we assume) because of it.
Nice looking bench BTW

Nice set up, Ken.

I'm with Michael, stay along the coast until you need to turn east into the smoke.
Hwy U.S. 30 from Astoria, OR will get you to Portland and PDX. From there I am not sure what the best clear route back to AZ would be.
