Columbia River Maritime Museum, Astoria, OR 05/23 At Long Beach, Washington, we took our time getting up. We were less than an hour from our next campground and check in isn’t until noon. We left around 10:00am and went back over the bridge and back to Seaside, Oregon, where we had passed yesterday (see last... Continue Reading →
Remember Kevin’s rule that HOWE (footnote 1) HAS to spend at least 1 night in a state in order for us to count it as being there and adding it to our US sticker map? We have been to Washington state quite a few times over the years but not in HOWE. (Washington is a... Continue Reading →
South Beach, OR 05/23 One day when I was at Quilt Retreat, Kevin met up with some friends. They are also traveling full-time. They went to South Beach, OR, across the road from our campground. Kevin found this amazing rock - look and see the shells INSIDE the holes. He said the rock is as... Continue Reading →
My cousin Jennette is the one who got me started sewing quilts in 2020. She is talented in so many ways and she loves to teach others who want to learn. We started sewing together once a month and invited others to join. Our group grew to about 10 ladies and soon we were meeting... Continue Reading →

We walked down to the float platforms where the boats tie on. We saw a lot of families excitedly walking to their boats for the ceremony. Boats All Shining... Continue Reading →
Kevin and I drove south out of Newport, Oregon along Hwy 101. We stopped often at the beaches. While it was cold and incredibly windy, the sun was out. But we still needed to wear our winter coats. The coast is beautiful. I really like the rocks that the waves crash into. Seal Rock, OR... Continue Reading →
We headed to Oregon’s Pacific Ocean coast. We had reservations at Whaler’s Rest Campground which is in South Beach, just a few miles south of Newport. Check in was nice and easy; the lady was very helpful. She suggested to look at sites 58 or 59 because she knew Starlink (Footnote 1) works there. Starlink's... Continue Reading →
At Southern Oregon RV Park, Kevin and I walked to the campground office and bought our 3rd bundle of firewood. It is nice to have a few days of good weather for a campfire. Later that afternoon Kevin started the fire so we would have coals for packets. This time we tried a new recipe... Continue Reading →
We drove through Jacksonville which is about 15 miles west of Southern Oregon RV Park in Central Point, Oregon. The downtown looks really old and I wondered if the buildings were original. We think we might come back here another day. We then drove Hwy 238 about half hour north to Grants Pass. The drive... Continue Reading →
This day was forecasted to be sunny and 60s. Yesterday I had checked, again, Crater Lake National Park website. Still closed. Some of the park is always closed in the winter but even Rim Road was closed now due to so much snow. Sad. We had not been to Crater Lake before. I suggested we... Continue Reading →
