On my drive back from Washington, I stopped by the Roque Creamery in southern Oregon to do some cheese tasting. They make some of the best blue cheese there, among others, and they had one of my favorite cheeses to date – Humbolt Fog. This cheese is in a world of its own. It’s a creamy goat cheese with a layer of vegetable ash running through the center, and the edges start to ooze as it ages.
After driving a few more hours, we stopped on the upper Sacramento river past Shasta for a little cheese and bread snack. Sitting on a rock on the river eating cheese – what a perfect way to end a day of driving.
