This post is out of order

We finally have full hookups. I guess we did when we were in Blue Mesa, CO. But there we couldn't get cell phone or internet. )o:

We got to Whaler's Rest (South Beach, OR) Monday afternoon, but we were told we had to wait until morning to get in.

We drove down the coast several miles, but couldn't find anywhere to park. State Parks were full. KOA wanted about $60. Come on! Just for over night?! Forget it! Then we found a parking lot of a real estate gallery. Asked a neighbor who said as long as we were out of there by 8am there would be no problem.

The next morning we were waiting at Whaler's gate. We were told there was dry camping up the hill. A nice place - cell phone and internet worked. The next morning we went for a walk and were told by one of the campers that there was a space we could pull into. Sure! we kept on walking. A little later this guy came by again and told us the office said we could have it. Gordon went to check. SAur enough! They said they had looked for us the day before, but find us. Funny, we didn't leave the sight. Anyway, we are now all set up. I have 3 loads of wash done, and the sun is finally shining.

There are wild raspberries right out the door.

We are set for at least a week. Its cool, mist rolls in each morning. So far its been rather cool, better than 100's.
