The motorhome is almost ready to go and I am planning a trip down the Washington / Oregon Coast later this month. A leisurely pace with lots of time to explore small seaside towns, coffee shops and seafood! Staying with my usual method of travel I have no itinerary, no reservations and no final destination. Maybe as far as California, maybe not My moves will occur whenever I tire of a place or think I have seen all there is to see. Travel days will be short and my feet will spend more time "up" than on the pedals. I will be gone four to five weeks.
I am going to have a good time! Did I mention I am going to eat a lot of crab dipped in garlic and butter? And Oregon's Pinot Noir?
Sounds like a great trip. Take your time and enjoy every minute. Look forward to hearing and seeing (pictures) all about your adventures!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Good on you Croft! Looking forward to reading all about it!
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks a lot Croft for creating a craving for seafood in someone landlocked. :^(
ReplyDeleteThe coast is not that far away Bill! I prefer the west coast though. Meet you in Seaside, Oregon?
DeleteGet out and explore, enjoying some wonderful scenery and great seafood.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that you are going to be hitting the road! I think that traveling is the best medicine for you right now. Enjoy it, the scenery is spectacular along the coast. :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Trails! Sounds heavenly.......
ReplyDeleteOregon is fabulous. Must stops -Lincoln City for the Fish Peddler, Boiler Bay - humpbacks feeding, Depoe Bay -whaling station, Beverly Beach State Park -treed , South Beach State park -open, Gold Beach -take the 6 hour jet boat up the Rogue River -guaranteed to put a smile on your face. You should try to get down to Burlington Campground in California- Camping in the Giant Redwoods!!

Thanks for the tips, I will refer back to them. I have been on the Rogue River Mail boat trip and yes, a real adventure!
DeleteThank you for coming all this way on the 27th! I am sorry I did not get more of a chance to talk to you, it has been far too long!
DeleteIt was great to see you and Brooks and hear the stories about Norma.
DeleteCan't wait to read about your adventures on the road! Yahooooooo!!!
ReplyDeleteIf you go to Newport OR be sure to go to MO's Seafood on the docks. It's an experience!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect adventure. You certainly need a break. If you can stop in Cannon Beach ( there is an RV park here) and walk the beach. See the puffins, enjoy the clam chowder and visit some wineries.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly chose a gorgeous route! I moved to San Miguel from Washington state and previously lived in Oregon, so have driven the coast many times. Always find it beautiful, meditative, and seductive, no matter the weather. In fact I think I prefer it to be rainy when I'm on the Oregon coast. Delightful. Will be eager to see and hear about your adventures. Safe travels and happy trails!
