Owwyheedog: we will certainly honk. Hubby used to have a 1944 flat fender military Jeep. Sadly, we had to sell it a few years ago when he was laid off. Wish we had kept it. Now, we are looking at SxS UTVs for even more exploring. We could have towed the Jeep and saved some $$$. Thanks for the info on the app for the Garmin. Is it on the Garmin website? I will ask Santa for ones for Nevada and Oregon, maybe Idaho and Wyoming later. Closer to home and not as crowded as Utah, Washington, California and Arizona. We use our Garmin, iPad Mini GPS apps, Benchmark maps, NG Trails Illustrated maps just to discover those out in the boonies places. Or, rely on serendipity to just drive on a road to see what we can see.
btggraphix: yes, that Southeast corner of Oregon is remote which is why folks like us really like it. The 360 degree sunrises/sunsets are so amazing. We live on 6 acres of PNW woods so we like the view. And, the stars and quiet are very are just superb. I will have to check out the Roaring Springs ranch. the name is familiar. The Whitehorse Ranch is large also as is the one around Paisley (owned by Simplot, I think). Love the remoteness of Southeast Oregon. A quick Google search showed near Frenchglen and 205. I know we have driven by it. Another large ranch is in Nevada near Cedarville, California. It has no trespassing signs posted about every 50 feet. I think it is the Lone Pine or something like that, an LLC. Miles and miles of fencing and nary a cow in site. Someone told me that a corporation bought it for water to sell to Reno?
Not a fan of walmart or starbux and hope we don't need a hospital.
