Off to Oregon....

Good Morning Blogland Peeps :)
We are off bright and early this morning...driving the RV up to Oregon!!! IM SO EXCITED and TITILLATED!! heehheee
We'll be stopping at and visiting with some goood friends, Christy and her "Elf".. hittin' the town in Portlandia..enjoying lots of libations such as the one pictured above ;) .. and hoping for some nice yummy fall weather :)
Then it's off to the Coast.. Waldport to be exact, for a couple of nites. Can't wait to see the Oregon Coast!
Then we'll slowly make our way down Hwy. 1... stopping in Manchester Bay...San Fran.. Monterey.. Ohhhh the Places we'll Go!! :)
So check back for photos.. maybe next week?
I hope everyone is enjoying their Fall..and I hope you're all out there taking pictures of things that make you smile :)
Hugs!!

Surf and Sand...

...here I come!

Heading to the beach for a few days...

will be back with pictures :)

Home at Last...

ahhhhhh...
pardon the sand spilling out from my jean cuffs..
and the windblown hairstyle..
and my laid-back attitude..
but I've just returned from a week at the beach..and will need some time to re-adjust to 'life' :)

I figured by making a slideshow...it might be easier to post instead of allllll of those pictures...


We had a great time..the cool weather..the ocean surf..even waking up to the pitter-patter of raindrops on our RV roof was just heaven to my ears :)
I hope I can get the sand outta my head and buckle back down to work here soon..
someone shake me..
shake me hard.
:)

Thank you to Natalie and Arlene for identifying this yucky, gross bug!! :)
Its a "Jerusalem Cricket' or potato bug...

Just wanted to post that I won't be around for a week..Tim and I are taking off bright and early tomorrow morning and heading up the coast for some much needed Beach Time!! :)
Heading to just North of Santa Barbara.. to Morro Bay.. Pismo Beach.. Jalama Beach.. Slovang..
to take in the sights and sounds of Ocean Camping :)
I will be back with pics..and probably lots of sand in my camper.. but ahhh..it will be so worth it :)

take care my friends..

and remember to keep your eye open for those little 'moments' that happen ... take your camera with you all week to capture them..and HAVE FUN :)

been playing...

... we went to Vail Lake last weekend..and had fun playing in the hills and wildflowers..

and also with our new 'toy'.. a Jeep!

Now we will be able to tow it behind the rv..and be able to go exploring on our little trips that we take! Im soooo excited! :)
There's been times on our trips we would have liked a car to get into town or to go exploring with..and sometimes those things are just too far to do on a bicycle. Well..we found a used Jeep at a local dealership here and just had to jump on it!
Now Tim will have something to play with and 'trick out'.. he can't wait to start pimpin' his ride! lol
This new toy brings back such great memories.... Tim used to have a 1949 Willies jeep when we were dating..and we used to have SOOOO much fun getting into trouble with that thing!!
I don't know how many farmers back-40's we've plowed thru..or some real deep mud pits that we had to be pulled outta..and rock piles we've climbed over..and even slammed it into a snowbank once (not on purpose)..and ended filling the back end of the poor jeep with a bunch of snow from hitting the bank!
ahhhhhhhh...the fun...
I think we'll take much better care of this one tho... and no snowbanks to run into lol
