On April 1st, 2020 I left Tucson, AZ and drove as fast as I could to Bridgewater, NH; my home base until November. The total trip was around 2700 miles – which I accomplished in 5 days, driving 12 + hour days and only…
I decided to check off “Trees of Mystery” from my list of places I wanted to see before I left Oregon. I’ve passed this place multiple times back in 2013 when I stayed in Brookings, Oregon and always thought it looked too much like…
Here’s a quickie! This was a beautiful hike that I took with Teddy after I gave him a bath at the “self dog wash” place down in Gold Beach – which is about 30 minutes south of here. It’s an approximately 2.5 miles out…
So, in all the time that I’ve been here in Port Orford, I never took a tour of the lighthouse or the Huges House located in the state park. It took the visit of a vacationing friend to get me inside! Here’s a bit…
Well, it’s been wetter and windier than normal here on the coast of Oregon but summer is finally getting here! I’ve been pretty busy with work so I don’t have any new places to show (yet) but thought I’d share a few pictures of…
SOOOOO…. I am BACK in Port Orford, Oregon for the summer. I’d planned on going to the east coast this summer but, just in case I was needed by my sister in Tucson, the distance from here is definitely more doable. (Making the 5200+…
Well, it’s been a long while since I posted anything new here so I thought I’d better add something to help some of you stop wondering if I was alive or not. lol! I HAD planned to stay up in the White Mountains of…
Well, I’d hoped that I’d still be running around Oregon today but alas… the 7-10 day vacation I’d planned for this week got cut short by work emergencies. The 6 hour drive home was beautiful tho! lol (Poor Teddy was NOT amused.) I was…
Since work has kept me pretty much pinned to the computer, I haven’t done much exploring lately – but there’s always time for RV improvements! It was definitely time to get rid of the original cheap plastic sink and corroding, squeaky faucet in the…
There’s an undeveloped state park that has a couple of wonderful trails near the Cape Blanco airport. There’s no signs marking the park on the highway and it’s usually not very busy. The main trail takes you west around the airport then splits after…
I know, I know… I’ve been slacking in exploring new places but work has kept me glued to my desk! (Grrr…) Here’s a few new pictures – and a video I took of Teddy – Warning: It’s very “cute”. lol Barklow Mountain West Hike:…
It’s time to move on so I’m leaving Port Orford, Oregon next week. It’s been a glorious summer here: The weather has been amazing – sunny and around 55-65 degrees almost every day. I’ve made some new friends at the Camp Blanco RV Park…
