Sunshine & The Oregon Coast

We finally got a sunny day and boy did it make us smile!! Took a couple parting pics of the Blue Heron Cheese Factory as we left, this place was so cool!
Off to breakfast we went, looking for new adventures and Bloody Mary's! We landed at Rendezvous Bar & Grill in Tillamook and enjoyed a delicious breakfast and friendly local folks. Also played slots in the bar, it's the way the Oregon Lottery does it!!
That was Barry's steak breakfast, not mine of course! After breakfast came our morning stroll for a Geocache which landed us at the museum! Double win!!
So many animals!! My favorite of course...
Barry even got to build a Lego house!!
And we found Becca's dream kitchen!
Three floors of so much history, it was the perfect way to start our day! Then down the road we went and lo and behold, we found a casino!
Thank goodness we only stayed an hour or two, it was not my lucky day! Or was it? The Sea Hag in Depoe Bay was the absolute luckiest stop ever! Truly award winning clam chowder, fried zucchini and seared ahi that I will crave the rest of my life!
Feeling completely satiated we grabbed a final geocache of the day and set out for Newport Oregon, our resting spot for the night.
Charlie's loving the sunshine and the hotel room with lots of space to run around! 
Cheers to BC Life!

Learning & Loving It

After a seedy hotel room and Charlie being a butt hole all night we hit the road bright and early! And boy did we hit the road, lots and lots of road!! We stopped in the side of the road next to the river and I made us a delicious breakfast! Charlie finally got comfortable on his leash and enjoyed all the smells of the great outdoors! We relaxed and enjoyed the sunshine before we got back to the massive amounts of road!! Since we got on the road early, we arrived at our destination nice and early and were able to do laundry at the Whitehorse Casino RV Resort. First time doing laundry in the road!! It cost $7.00 for two loads, not bad! After some celebration shots and relaxing in the sun with Charlie, we were off to make a donation to the local tribes! I did end up winning $400 on Barry's favorite dragon game! Cheers to BC Life!

Back On The Road

Image
Three days in one spot and we were definitely ready to hit the road again for new adventures! It was great to spend so much time with mom and Jeff, what a treat those hot springs were! We had a delicious breakfast at Crane Store, Cafe, Gas & RV Park with them before heading out. Neat little stop in the middle of nowhere! Hugs and kisses and see you soons and off we went heading for John Day Oregon. Our first stop was to stretch our legs and explore the tiny town of Canyon City. A lot of history in this roadside town!  Everything was closed until May but we still got to enjoy the stop with murals on the buildings and plans to return! And there was this house... yes, it was occupied!! Then on to John Day! Again, everything is closed until May but that didn't stop us from exploring! And geocaching! ...

Two Weeks In

After being on the road for 15 days we've come to realize that this van life travel thing is definitely for us!! We've loved every minute of every adventure, even the yuck part of the van rocking! Last night we arrived at the KOA in Castle Rock for a two night camp to finish out our maiden voyage! Little did we know it was going to be such an epic finish.  Our spot was perfect and we enjoyed a cold morning fire with our coffee and I made breakfast with some yummy left overs. We rode our bikes down to the little market a couple times in between the lovely snow showers! Nothing too major and the sun even came out a few times!  We played some pool at the little clubhouse, enjoyed more left overs for dinner and took showers that were free!! All in all, a wonderful quiet day of relaxing and not packing up and moving again! Barry says cheers to BC Life!
