On the Road Again - Happy Thanksgiving

We left Port Susan yesterday around five in the evening, not the two o'clock that we were shooting for. We didn't want to drive out in the dark after what happen a month and a half ago, but being slow learners and anxious to get on the road, we left in spite of the dark. I didn't scrape or hit anything and have a little more confidence in driving back. Not the bravado I did have but I feel it coming back.

We stopped for the night at a rest stop just south of Olympia and parked next to another motorhome which stayed for the night. When we awoke this morning it was 36 degrees. Boy, I think we are getting out of the frigid north just in time to avoid the really cold weather! We hit the road shortly after we woke up. Ty stretched out on the couch and slept the whole day.

We arrived at Beverly Beach, OR around 3pm and found our campsite. With the help of some neighbors, one who moved his truck, I got shoehorned in to our spot. Ty wanted to get out and explore and despite the gentle rain I put on a hat and coat and took him for a walk. The rain didn't seem to slow him down like I exspected it to. He just shook it off a couple of times. Finally, after about a half hour he was soaking wet and we went back to the motorhome. Wet cats don't smell like wet dogs do. At least Ty didn't seem to.

Dark and rainy here at Beverly Beach

Because of the holiday I couldn't get the same site for two nights so we have to move next door tomorrow. We plan to stay two days so we can visit the Oregon Coast Aquarium about six miles south on us in Newport.

Debbie bought bologna and other food stuffs when we stopped for fuel earlier today. I guess we both were thinking about bologna sandwiches driving down the coast and we decided we would rather have bologna sandwiches than go out to dinner so we canceled our reservation and enjoyed.
