Wilsonville, OR

July 8, 2013
We drove 180 miles to Pheasant Ridge RV Resort in Wilsonville, OR today. We stayed here before and were given a free night stay because on that visit our new trailer was exposed to its first rain. It didn't like it a bit and leaked. There was water on floor, the walls and windows. We had to leave early so the manager gave us a free night. We didn't have to worry about the rain this trip. It was in the upper 80's both days we were here. Today we went into town and had lunch at McMenamens Church Pub. It is a quaint place with good food. Then to Camping World for a couple things. Back at camp we made some friends, had a great dinner and sat out til about 10 enjoying the evening.

We had breakfast and took off for McMinnville for the day. Going through Newburg we stopped at a great little wine tasting room for Anam Cara Winery. They have some great wines. We especially like their Dry Riesling so we bought some. We don't usually go for whites but this was good stuff. Then off to the town of Dundee to Four Graces tasting room. More real good Oregon wine. We found a real tasty Pino Noir and Pinot Gris that we liked. We then went to Duck Pond Winery which we had visited years ago. No tasting, just visiting the gift shop. The same owners at Desert Wind in Prosser have this winery. Time for lunch. We were told about a great little market in Dundee so went there and shared a terrific roasted turkey, apple and arugula sandwich. We needed bread for french dips so we bought a small ciabatta loaf and some white cheddar cheese. Back to camp to enjoy the rest of the beautiful day. We met a nice couple, Mike and Jeannie, from San Diego that came over to our site after dinner. We stayed out till after 11. Tomorrow on the road to Port Orford on the coast.
