January 2010 Our Trip to Yuma

Made it to Winchester Bay, had oysters for dinner and listened to the waves crash on the rocks.
We are tempting fate, this is where we broke down last year and spent 11 days here. Not a bad place to be stuck however. Headed down the road today to Brookings!

Jer and the Doggies out on the dock! The sunset that night!

Day Number 7 in Paradise!



This is a dock that everyone goes out and crabs and fishes off of. We wandered out there yesterday 1-28-09 since the day was glorious! Our 5th Wheel is over on the right, tiny white dot! The Doggies were covered in Sand and needed a bath by the time we got back!

Stay Tuned

Day Number 6 in Winchester Bay, Oregon



This is the tree in our yard at our "new" residence. But its Tuesday and its raining sideways and the wind is actually blowing today. First day since we have been here. Haven't heard about the truck yet, watching movies, playing on the internet and reading books. It is staying in weather today. I opened a FACEBook account also, much to the surprise of my daughters. Found people on there I haven't seen in a while! FUN stuff!

5th Day In Paradise

Today is Monday and we are still in Winchester Bay. As you can see the weather is fabulous, cold but fabulous. This was taken tonight at 5:15. The Camp Hosts took us to Safeway in Reedsport today for supplies. We were only going to be gone for 4-5 days and we are on Day 10.
The RV Resort we are staying at even feels sorry for us, they are giving us a discount on the spot. Everyone here is so nice.

Stuck in Paradise

Well its Monday January 26, I think! Talked to the repair shop today, they are sending our fuel pump to Portland for testing, repairs whatever... We are now getting the Weekly rate at the RV park, they have taken pity on us. The wonderful people that are camp hosts took me to Safeway in Reedsport today for supplies. Got some fresh fruit and some milk and cereal. She even offered to take me by the Liquor store but Jer said he was good, some campers that left yesterday that I was talking to telling them our plight, they brought by a bottle of Vodka so we wouldn't be without. We have been well taken care of. Stay Tuned!

Papa and Young Sylas


Papa is explaining the facts of life to Sylas at a tender age of 5 days. He seems to be quite intent on what he is saying.
