Thought I'd add a couple of pictures from this mornings' walk on the beach:




Will add more soon!
After a hard week at work, Carol had previously made reservations to spend Saturday night in Lincoln City. We had tickets to see the Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons tribute band - Lights Out. So, I worked out early on Saturday A.M. and we packed up the van and had lunch at Grand Ronde. Then, on to Lincoln City. We went to the car show downtown and here's a few of the cars we liked:





After the car show we went to the hotel and checked in. At 8:00 P.M. we were sitting down listening to Lights Out. They did a great job! Really enjoyed their music. Today we got up, walked on the beach for a while, had breakfast, then drove back home. Nice weekend!

I can't believe how fast the summer is going by. On August 1st Carol & I set out in the afternoon for Pendleton, OR. We spent the night and drove through Idaho and Utah the next day. And pulled into Little America, WY. Saturday night. Sunday morning we drove to Cheyenne and met the family at Holiday Park...what a great time!



 
 
How great was that...to come to the park and sit down with family and enjoy the food and their company!!! But, we had to leave after a few hours and followed Kelly and Etienne to Ft. Collins, CO and spent the night (thank you for letting us stay with you!). Monday morning we got to go for a little open Jeep ride to Horse Tooth Reservoir...lots of fun!  Then we drove to Denver to see Nancy Dyer. We miss Uncle Orv and it was good to hold Nancy and tell her so. We stayed at Nancy's and enjoyed seeing all of the Dyers in Denver.  On Wednesday morning we were back on the road toward Interstate 80. We stopped in Twin Falls, Idaho for the night. And drove into Portland on Thursday evening. Quick trip...but, worth every second. More good stuff to come!
