Cool and colder, fog and foggy

Wow it's 50 cold and some fog  had the heat on almost all day yesterday and today looks like the same thing as well 

Kind of looks like the temps are cooling down some on the coast coming In to later  August  so if this is any preview of coming September I may need to think about putting a real fireplace in this camper and stock up on a cord of wood

And pick up 15.00$ a week cable from the park

We're about 6 miles from Newport center  and we're on the end of town that ain't got much down here,end ,

And yes Walmart,s on the  other end and no not this end so don,t for get your list coz it,s a long way to this end ,se 

Did not do much Monday  got the new dvd spiderman(dumb)  Can't remember the last time I was in a  movie  theater, seems you pay a lot for so little  

hit the only Walmart  tried to do the beach kite thing but way to cold,  like low 65 wind fog, with the fog made it feel that much colder out side

Don't have any plans to do today, but I will get sitting in the house fever so it's off to some place ?? 

2 fr 1. And Fat Seals songs

Seeing as how today is 57 an sunny and bright todays outting was to the Yaquina Head  lighthouse  

And to find whales so far so good now as Snidley whiplash would say eh,eh.  an then, along came the fog    And then the battery went south with out me, next time I'm quitting

Due to the fog  I,ve seen fog so I did not need to climb up to look at FOG,, sorry 

Now the fog was high up but low to the water it was somewhat clear so  6 gray whales came dancing right on time feeding about 200/ 300 yds  offshore 

so after that we slipped in to town for about an hour same old tourist shit different town

At least Newport has one main attraction about 45 brown fat dumb  and happy obese seals 

Doing there seal thing,, please don't ask me to mimic the seal song 45 baritone seal all at once 

All I wanted to do was screen and leave 

So It was to early to head back so it was head over to Yaquina Bay lighthouse I did a tour of the house , the light is not open to the public O well 

Thank God for Overcoats BUT the suns out

Today's 54  and fog 1 more day here in Lincoln City at the Casino than off to South Beach 

(Newport Or ) for 7 days 

There's 2 old lighthouses near Newport to see there ,  

It's hard to think its mid - August and were heading south slowly, we're not looking forward to the heat 

In the southern parts after the cool temps we,ve been used to, here it seems if we get temps in the 75 range (rare) its hot for us now 

We're thinking mid to late  sept baring anything unforeseen and stupid 

This coast is to beautiful and I / we are not looking forward to leaving  it any time soon

Even if the fresh raspberries are getting slin pickings 

Pacific Northwest transplanted Redneck

Ya there up here as well to I guess ,,finding water and wet  Mud brings out the Kid in us all

Todays 60 sunny low wind 

And moving day,, only about 25 miles south to Lincoln  City to a casino   For 4days of free dry camping 

We will be glad to get out of this campground and the hills 

Marshmallow fields forever

Cool I know some day I would find out were they grow marshmallows well low and behold I found Tham right here on the Oregon coast,, fields after fields there were, what a sight to see 

High on a hill

Todays 54 fog in am, cant see shit 

after noons now the fogs gone and it,s sunny 65  wind 25 

Were in the hills lots of tham That,s were we are now at this 1000trails campground I feel like I'm in the alps 

After taking  the dogs for a walk I'm huffing and puffing from up hill down hill , the next campground needs to be flat land

I got a new power kite (8 W x 5 L ) now that bad boys needs to be strapped to my truck or someone's going to pick me up 2 beaches over i need a low wind day to try this one 

Internet here sucks bad,,  

You need to take a trip up hill to the club house to do any internet stuff 

Sun,s out time to move

Today's moving day  well only 30 miles south to Pacific City and down to civilization 

Now staying at the Tillamook airport was super only 4 campers on 40 acres and all the raspberries 

We can eat  even after 4 days of crap no sun days it was still nice and restfull 

Now we're at 1000 trails camp grounds PC right on the coast there's 400 sites here and it,s 95% full what a bummer however you need to be a mountain goat to drive in here  one  minute your going up hill next it,s down hill and the sites are small we only have elect / water but we dumped anyway so in the long run were good for 11 days 

The town of PC is small,,  by that,, there's only 1 blinking red light in the center of town 

And it's not hard to find the cop there's only 3 

And It,s a tourist town to  boot  

One can drive on the beach here so tomorrow it kite flying time 

inking 

On the Bottom photo just on just on the oother side of the hill is PC 

and sand dumes are on either  side so to have fun  

Some kids sand slide down and sand ski down yes I'm checking it out,, and no I'm not 

If you could put your mind to it

Sure go for it 

Or is it dance like you caught yourself with the zipper

It,s a slow day went shopping wow how much fun was that 

Over cast 68 winds 3.  

Today's stuff. Biplane 3 ?  3 dump Trucks    6 cars  1 cop    the workers will be done today

Paid my 20$ for 2 days 

And picked 2 bowls  and eat a bowl  of black raspberries 

And read 3/4 of my book 

That's  my day 

Airport lighthouse

Last night at sundown the airport turns on there aircraft rotating beacon about 250 ft away 

And all night long it was   white   green   white.  Green   flashes in side our Rv cool we have  our own lighthouse 

Today's fog light rain low over cast  and 57 /61

And only one plane 3 trucks and 4 Rv,s  today 

                         Love my blue flame heater 

                       But no I don't run it all night  we like it cool at night to sleep 

But at 54 in the morning this heaters the cats ass to have,,,set its thermostat at about 3 and it,s 81 all day long 

Can,t Fly Junk

So  we went to the air museum. 8$ each next time I'm takeing the DW out to lunch instead 

It was a poor setup really not worth the price an a Museum go,s a 1  Rating 

This museum is in bad need of funds as most of the plane are turning in to rust, do to no one keeping 

Them up or any stop gaps to slow the decay down 

There's NO restoration on site even so there's lots of open roon but due to the high humidity factor here in the north west coast and the hangers not set up to to do this mind you this hangers was used to keep the blimps out of the wind and rain onlyit was so dark in there I could not take photos 

And even if I did there were none worth my time to take 

And as big as this hanger is 10% is for aircraft exhibits the rest is for RV storage and thats only about another 10% and the rest is open 

                   But I did have fun in the derelict train yard now as to the age of those old guys 

Let's say WAY before my time 

Come fly with me

Seeing as how we cant move down to Pacific City till the 16th We moved 20 miles south to the Tillamook air port rv park at 10$ a night but with NO hookups 

But Theres a  water spigot near by and a bathroom 

This city rv park is on 40 acres next.to the airport runway so far only 1air plane and old biplane that gives tour flew by 

As of tonight there's only 6 other rv,s in here there's room for 80 here

I'm hoping it stays at 6 or  less 

With no power on site it's a good thing I have a solar panel

But our needs are small only thing I miss so far is to heat up my coffee I like my 120 sec, ZAPPER

One thing we found was a rv shop that sells Propane for 1.80 pr, gal, all the time,, and he told me he still makes money as low as that 

wow 12.25 to fill my large tank that's better then 30$ any place else 

Any other place  you pay 2.50$ pr gal, 

                                  see not a soul around 

Tillamook air Museum on the other side to the flight line  

                         That's tomorrows mission 

Morning Mist Sunset sky,s

Sometimes it's nice to get up at first light

And hour later it was gone

We have been here 11days were going to miss the sights and sounds even so it's a small working town 

It's fun to be in 

Last sunset for this harbor but I will find more down the coast thats for sure 

Super Moon

Something we did not know was there are sand dunes this far up this coast 

We know in Florence sand dunes are a big deal   But here it is as well to

Here it's about 7 sq miles to ride your ATV  and I did see 2 4x4 track dodge trucks
