One of the cool things

 …about life on the road is the cycle of reconnecting with friends along the way. We got to meet up here in Newport with Ted and Penny we know from Gulf Waters.  We haven’t seen them in several years.  We’re here at the same time as some other friends of theirs, Steve and Jenny, so now we have pie, ice cream, and new friends too.

Tuesday

 It was a long and winding road today.  No, actually it was not that long, but the “winding” part more than made up for any lack of distance.  Egad.  That was a lot of driving. Another glorious scenic section of the Oregon Coast.  Judy would have taken pictures while we were driving in the motorhome, but she was way too busy keeping the rig on the road from the right seat.  She did a fine job, and we’re settled in now at the Newport Marina RV Park. 2015 summer trip map This campground gets us where we want to be for a few days. …and out the back door is a pretty cool bridge. We’re told it’s a fine setting for a sunset scene.

Travel Day

 William M. Tugman State Park to Winchester Bay RV Resort.  Roughly 5.5 miles.  We went from a sheltered forest campground to an open harbor marina site. 2015 summer trip map The park is pretty full. We didn’t get a very big space, but it’s a nice park and we’re glad to be here.  Another time, with more notice, we could get a waterfront site. A lakeside walk,   …a lighthouse,  …and a glimpse into the heart of the beast. Happy Father’s Day all. And Happy Summer Solstice.
