Down to Brookings

We left Florence around 10am this morning. It started snowing in Colberg this morning so we got out of there in the nick of time. And there was snow on some of the passes, so glad we decided to take the coast route.

The drive down to Brookings was a real challenge. We encountered heavy rain, wild wind and a curvy roadway, stretches of which were hung on the edge of the ocean, but no snow.  We arrived the the Elks around 2pm to an empty campground. We had to approach the lodge the round about way because a large sinkhole had swallowed both lanes of the road leading up to the lodge.

Tacos are on the menu at the lodge tonight but Debbie cooked a pot roast yesterday, love that crock-pot, so I’ll pass on the tacos. Love the crock-pot operator also!

We have a pull-through site so we were able to leave the car connected. We’ll leave in the morning for Trinidad, CA.
