Dawn

We’re just leaving Lincon City, heading south on Hwy. 101. It’s 2:00 pm. If we keep getting late starts like this we won’t even make it to LA by Thanksgiving. After talking to Brooke about us being so far behind our original schedule, we’ve decided to go to Arizona after Thanksgiving. Since we are going to spend T-day in LA anyway, it would be silly of us to go through LA to Arizona and then back to LA next week for T-day.

We went to the Outlet Mall this morning. I always buy my wrapping paper at the” Paper Factory” (best deal in town). I don’t have any gifts to use the paper on yet since I haven’t even started my shopping (which will shock every one who knows me well, I’m usually done by now).

We took the dogs to the beach. That was fun. I’ve never seen Molly run so fast. It was really cute.

I talked to Steph. She says she is totally redecorating my house. Taking all of the “mom” things down and putting up her posters and paintings. She’s going to send me pictures. I told her she can do anything except paint the walls. Hope I’m not sorry about that call. No, I trust her, I’m sure she’ll take care of things.

The views from 101 on this beautiful day are absolutely fantastic. Gee, I hope I made the right decision about taking this trip…let’s see…sitting at my desk at work? …or looking at this view?...hhhmmm???

We went through some really cute little beach towns today. Waldport and North Bend. And we landed in Bandon. Tomorrow we’ll go explore “Old Town” and probably the historic lighthouse. We found an RV park that just opened with full hookups and we just checked in to settle down for the evening. Some good shows on tonight like ”One Tree Hill” and “Lost”. And I’ll probably work on a scrapbook page.

Molly isn’t doing so great with all of the traveling. She seems to be pretty nervous while we’re moving, but then seems to be fine when we’re stopped. Hopefully she’ll get used to it. I thought it would be Lucy that might not like it but she seems to be doing fine. She has picked her ”throne” on the dashboard as her preferred mode of travel. Both girls have offered to keep the dogs for us if it doesn’t work out, so that’s good. But I would really miss my “babies”. I’m looking very forward to seeing my “grandchildren” Bubs & Belly next week. I miss them a lot. Oh ya, and Brooke& Luka too, lol.

We’re trying to figure out why some motorhomes put blocks of wood under their tires and under their jacks and some seem to just use their jacks without any wood. Does anyone know?
