      • Photos of Lucy!
        09/30/07
        She apparently likes to sleep under the covers.. . So we didn't sleep great last night because when she did dive under the covers she either tried to curl up next to your stomach (then proceed to knead it with her little poky claws) or she went straight to your feet which tickles. So, we dec

      • 3 ENTITIES in this little RV?!
        09/29/07
        Omg. .. Miranda has gone ahead and gotten us a New Family member.
        Lucy is a white 1 year old Cat. Already Marking most of the RV as her own.
        Within the first hour she explored most of the RV, Used the Littebox, and Ate some food. We hope she will be mellow enough to just "hang

      • Excitement about Lavabeds
        09/28/07
        I was looking at a Brochure for the lavabeds (Hundreds of Caves!) And read this one:
        Catacombs Cave (6,903 ft/2,104 m)
        This very long cave is easily entered but gradually
        increases in difficulty. It is possible to walk upright for
        approximately 800 ft (244 m) to the stairway, a

      • Crater Lake
        09/27/07
        We drove up to Crater Lake yesterday. It was gorgeous. A beautiful day also. We went for a short hike up to the tallest point on the rim and drove around half the rim. We started from the north and were leaving to the south, so instead of driving around one and a half times, we just picked a way

      • Diamond Lake
        09/26/07
        Well, we drove quite a bit yesterday and made it to Diamond Lake, which is just north of Crater Lake. We stayed at an RV park because they have internet. Our plan is to head into the park today and see what it's like and whether we have internet there. Then decide if we're just going to

      • Florence in the Morning
        09/25/07
        Well, Joe decided it would be best to get the oil change and check out our issue when we go uphill (sounds like it's going to die, so he has to put it into second and go about 25mph). So, while Joe found an auto guy that looked at the engine I worked on fixing some problems in the game.

      • Me Surfing
        09/25/07
        Last Friday (yes these entries are a little out of order) we went surfing before leaving the campground. Since the sun wasn't directly behind us, Joe decided to try and get some video of me surfing. Nothing too exciting.. I was under a bit of pressure. :)

      • Horse Back Riding
        09/24/07
        We went for a 2 hour horse back riding adventure today. It was tons of fun (don't know if Joe felt the same way... :) ) We walked along trails out to the beach, then we got to trot along the beach. There was a Russian family with us. We are staying in Florence at Pacific Pines again so we h

      • Joe Surfing
        09/21/07
        A couple days ago Joe went out surfing and I just walked out to the beach and watched. I was pretty pooped from surfing a few days in a row, so I wanted a break. Unfortunately, high tide is/was around 5ish so the sun was right behind him. Hard to get video when he's that far out and the sun

      • Dune Bunny Videos
        09/13/07
        Okay, so we went surfing today. Super long walk, but the waves were gorgeous and it was tons of fun. I stood up almost every time I caught a wave. :)

        Anyway, here are two dune buggy videos. One of Joe driving it on the beach and another I took from the passenger seat while on the dunes

        09/11/07
        Went out surfing again. The waves were relatively calm and very nice for catching and practicing. Tons of fun, but after three previous days of surfing I'm am worn out. Our seal buddy was hanging out by us for a bit. At one point Joe was to the left and ahead of me and the seal was basicall

      • Back to South Beach
        09/10/07
        Well, surfing at Beachside was awful. It was pretty rough and the currents were really strong. So, we decided to move back up to South Beach, where we stayed before Labor Day Weekend. It's a longer walk to the beach, but the surfing is a lot nicer. I stood up bunches and even rode in the w

      • Beachside State Camground
        09/08/07
        Woohoo.. We're at Beachside State Park Campground, Near Waldport OR now.. Without Super Internet, But it fulfills all of our other requirements for perfection:
        Near the Beach (2 city block walk to the water)
        Surfable (Nice sandy beach)
        Hot Showers (Really really nice after gett

      • We're Naughty...
        09/07/07
        So, Joe decided, looking at Google Earth, that there really wasn't going to be much for beaches anymore. At least not for a looong time. So, we went back north. Yes, we back-tracked about 100 miles. So we're now south of Waldport by maybe 5-10 miles. We're at a national forest ca

      • Dune Buggers!
        09/06/07
        Miranda and I rented a 2 seat Dune Buggy to go play in the Oregon Dunes Area. It was a good time :) The dunes go up to 100+ feet above the sands, and you can cruise all around. Also had trails to go to the ocean shore and cruise along. it was a good time. Definately worth the money to do on

      • RV Parking Lot
        09/05/07
        Well, we're staying in our first parking lot RV park. It has fast internet though which we need in order to get more work done. So, we stayed here one night to top up on power and water and get work stuff done, then we're heading out back into a National Forest Recreation Area. There ar

      • Creepy Beach Creatures
        09/02/07
        I figured I'd post about our Creepy Beach Creature incident 4 days ago.
        I was walking to shore from surfing (luckily had boots on for the first time) And suddenly (in a foot of water) was surrounded by thousands of Small Creatures swooshing by my legs!!! They were all 1 - 3 inches acros

      • Back to National Forest
        09/01/07
        Because of Labor Day Weekend, we sort of needed to find a place to hide out.. We found a road out into the National Forest again. There was a bit of a ditch in the road, so we took the bikes up and ended up find a very neat spot. We got the RV past the drain ditch in the road easily enough. So,
