If you're going to do Eureka Ca. and the Rogue River Valley, as Snowy suggested, you MUST come into the valley via US Hwy. 199 through the California Redwoods...it's an absolutely beautiful drive through a forest of the worlds largest trees. That takes you into Grants Pass, where if you look me up, I will buy you a beer
Snowy is also spot on about the Powderhorn Cafe for Pie.
