ALBANY, OR.  Today we drove to Blue Ox RV Park.  As we drove north on I-5 the smoke haze became more intense, likely from a fire near I-90 in Washington.  We shall head to the east tomorrow, then trend south away from I-90 as we position ourselves to drive I-80 eastward across the country.

It seemed odd driving off from North Bend alone.  Two fellow tour participants were still at the RV park there.  One of them waved out her window as we passed.  As we pulled into this park in Albany, there were no tour participants to greet us.  Nevertheless, it is nice to launch into the next phase of our time on the road, now with more independence.

There is an indoor heated pool here which we shall sample shortly.
