Return Trip PArt 2. Klamath Falls to moses lake

So we get into Klamath falls around 8am or so and have to wait around for about an hour for the bus.There was only 11 of us taking this bus to pasco, which was nice because we got stretch out and there was plenty of room.The bus driver tells us before we take off that its a 7 hour bus ride but Amtrak wont let the bus get there until 8pm. So a 7 hour bus ride he had to stretch to an 11 hour bus ride.So we made a few stops to get snacks and drinks and to stretch our legs that kinda thing.we went by crater lake saw a few bald eagles. We stopped at the bridge that was 300ft above the crocked river.There was also a story that a women tossed her kids over the bridge. It was pretty cool bridge.It started snowing at this point. Then we stopped in this ghost town in shaniko oregon.It was really foggy at this point so made the place a little creepy. This ghost town has the oldest functioning post office in Oregon. It started in 1901.IT was neat walking around there.We get on the bus and head for biggs Oregon, this is where our dinner break will be. On the way to biggs we hit some thick fog. you couldn't see anything, it was like a grey blanket was tossed over us. Thank goodness that didn't last to long. We did see parts of the Oregon trail. and ( i don't remember where) there's this tree that is covered in shoes. Don't know why someone would make a shoe tree but there is one out there in nowhere Oregon.lol.SO we get to biggs, its nothing more then a truck stop. We have dinner and hung out there until 530 or so. Now its getting dark and its hard to see anything. we got into Pasco about 730. John and the kids were there to pick us up. it was about an hour and a half car ride to Moses lake.
