A Trip To the Coast

We went for a day trip today over to the Oregon coast. We were going to take Grandson Micah with us to look at an RV park that sells lots. Fortunately Granddaughter Kyra offered to go as well so we had a second driver. Forry's doctor started him on a new med that has a side effect of drowsiness, so he was out as a driver today.

We took I-5 south to Hwy 22 which took us over to Lincoln City. From there we went south to Newport where we toured Pacific Shores. Pacific Shores describes itself as being "a Luxury Motorcoach Resort on the Spectacular Oregon Coast."  It is indeed a beautiful place, with lots of gorgeous motor homes as well.

When we arrived at the resort, the staff gave us a list of available sites and a map. We slowly drove around and up and down, looking at all the sites that were for sale - and all of the other ones as well. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, maintenance is part of the Owner Association's dues. The park has an association that manages it. I tried to get a copy of the association rules, but their computer was down. They did promise to email me a copy...

On our way back to Keizer, we stopped at Barnacle Bill's in Lincoln City and bought fresh crab. We also stopped at a fruit stand and purchased corn, peaches and a few heirloom tomatoes. Ky and I went over to Safeway when we got home and picked up some sourdough French bread to go with the crab. We definitely had a feast for dinner tonight! There is nothing quite as good as Dungeness crab!
