Inside The Little Pine Cafe' Back in Mitchel, OR. This Roadhouse Owner Represents What the Narrator May Have Experienced by Kalmath Lake. Clearly This Restaurant Is Much, Much, Better Than What the Narrator Described at Klamath Lake
“ …. on my way back to our booth I take a second look at the owner behind the bar. A nineteen-twenties face. Uncomplicated, uncool and unbowed. This is his castle. We’re his guests. And if we don’t like his hamburgers we’d better shut up. .. When they arrive, the hamburgers, with giant raw onions, are tasty and the bottle beer is fine. A whole meal for a lot less than you’d pay at one of those old-ladies places with plastic flowers in the window. As we eat I see on the map we’ve taken a wrong turn way back and could have gotten to the ocean much quicker by another route. “(Cont.Next) [See my previous photos for Redmond Oregon for more information re the "wrong turn way back".]
Somewhere along the Eastern shore of Klamath Lake, OR. I’m sorry not to have found any candidates for the Narrator’s roadhouse along the East side of Klamath Lake. My imagination failed me!! It never occurred to me that I was on a new highway a considerable distance away from the towns the Narrator may have gone through. I now realize I was misled by my memory of a previous trip 13 years ago (see caption of next photo.) I had the quite reasonable memory expectation that the towns were at the water’s edge. Since I was traveling at the water’s edge, I kept going under the belief that I would find these towns per my memory. But were these were merely ghosts in my mind? No! This is not likely the reason. I probably failed to see the water’s edge (and the towns) because the water had been moved and I did not realize this! Since my trip, a new dyke system is likely to have been built far from the original shore. This allowed the water to be pumped out, and thus the creation of new agriculture land. See Topozone maps 2nd photo previous. Also see the other links on the 2nd photo previous for considerable discussion of how a largest percentage of the original Upper Klamath Lake has been claimed for agriculture!!
