On The Road Again, August 24-26

We spent the morning finishing up the final touches on the Beaver.  There are a few things Joel need to "clean up" and they can be accomplished on the road, so by noon we hit the road.  We had made arrangements to catch up with Joel's son and daughter on Saturday, so we stopped at the Salem Elks Club for the night.

Saturday morning we headed into Portland with the car,  picked up Jenny and went shopping.  Jenny's baby is due the end of September and Joel had promised her he would buy her a stroller and a few other baby items.  Wow, how things have changed since I had babies.  There are so many styles to choose from:  all terrain strollers; baby joggers; city street strollers; and there is even a Jeep type stroller...and the good ones are all expensive $$$.  Yikes.  It's almost like buying a car.

Well, with Joel's lighter wallet we met up with Bradley and we all had a nice lunch; said our good-byes; and headed back to Salem.  We hitched up the Beaver and headed over to the Spirit Mountain casino for the night.  Joel really was on a mission to get to the coast so we could begin our travels up the Oregon coast.

Sunday we arrived at the Pacific City TT for the week.  After last week's marathon, I am looking forward to "staying put" for a few days and we have a perfect view from our galley area:

I'm looking forward to some serious  beach walking.!
