I did a terrible job of keeping up with this blog last year. Terrible. So in an attempt to get caught up, I present you now with a very long, picture-heavy post that covers some highlights of our time from May – Dec 2017. Get ready. After Yosemite, we headed straight back to the coast … Continue reading Very long catch-up post
Yikes – I’ve been a bad blogger lately – two weeks since my last post! Here’s what we’ve been up to since leaving Crater Lake. We visited the very cute town of Ashland, Oregon for a few days. We stayed at the Emigrant Lake campground, which would have been perfect if not for the 90+ … Continue reading Wrapping up Oregon
Whenever Deas and I discussed our Oregon plans with anyone, inevitably someone recommended Crater Lake. Everyone kept telling us how beautiful it was, how amazing it was. I still wasn’t overly motivated to go. Of course it would be beautiful. After all, lakes are pretty, right? What was so special about this particular lake? Well, … Continue reading Crater Lake….Wow
Deas and I first visited Bend about three years ago, when we decided to attend an RV show that was being held there. We fell in love with Bend then, and it was just as great the second time around. We stayed the first 4 nights at the Bend/Sisters Garden RV Resort, which is closer … Continue reading Beautiful Bend
My computer has been on the blink, so I’m really behind on posting. I’m writing a post from my iPhone for the first time – we’ll see how it goes! We managed to drag ourselves off the coast for a couple of weeks of inland plans. We stayed 5 nights in Eugene, and we were … Continue reading Still in Oregon
From Winchester Bay, we headed south down highway 101 yet again, to the town of Bandon and nearby Bullards Beach State Park. Bandon is a cute little town and the state park is very nice, but our main reason for traveling here was to meet Nina and Paul, who write the blog Wheeling It. Their … Continue reading Bandon, Bullards Beach, and Blogging Buddies
Our next stop along the Oregon coast was another tiny town – this time Winchester Bay. With a population just under 400, and a total area of about 3 square miles, there really isn’t a whole lot going on other than crabbing and riding on the sand dunes. But there is a very nice county-run … Continue reading Winchester Bay
From Netarts we headed south towards Newport, and we stayed at South Beach State Park. It’s been fascinating to me how much the Oregon coast changes from destination to destination, and how different each location is. Newport is a nice little city that has a historic bayfront which is still a very active fishing port. … Continue reading Newport
Our next stop along the Oregon coast was the tiny little town of Netarts. Netarts Bay is known for its oysters, and being a Louisiana girl, I was interested in giving them a try. We stayed at the Netarts Bay RV Park & Marina. It wasn’t a marina like we were expecting – the only … Continue reading Oysters, Dunes, and More Beach Time
As I mentioned in my last post, we had to leave Nehalem Bay State Park on Tuesday because they were completely booked. During our stay there we had explored many of the surrounding cities, and we spotted a marina that have RVs parked right on the bay. We called and made a reservation, and had … Continue reading Kelly’s Marina near Rockaway Beach
