made it about a 110 miles down the road to Sand Lake to play in the sand dunes for the next couple of day. Doug, Tami and the Twerps will arrive tomorrow sometime. We didn't have a reservation and managed to find a spot that allows both satellite dishes to be set up so we're doing OK............I got my MTV and "B" wasn't without her internet for long enough to have affected her. We're both happy!
Took a little tour in the Rhino all the way to the back 40 and then came on home. This small portion of the Oregon sand dunes isn't very large but close enough to let you get your "sand fix" if you need one. Also, there are 4 geocaches located nearby, two more were placed in the dunes and two on the access roads so we'll probably go hunt them down tomorrow. Also Friday is Seafood Buffet at the Chinook Winds Casino in Lincoln City. It's about 30 miles or so away so we'll be driving down tomorrow to get our Dungness Crab Fix and we might even pick up some fresh oysters to put on the bar-b-que. Had a dozen of them the last time we were here..........unfortunately only 7 of them worked. Shoulda asked for some of my money back.
Becky was snapping pictures so am including some of them............if anyone from Arizona checks this out you'll be happy to learn that I'll probably be freezing my tail off.........it was about 68 degrees when we arrived and as soon as the sun fades away the temp will drop rapidly. Heck, there may even be ice on the windshield when we wake up in the morning!
Anyways, here's where our abode will be for the next few days, some pictures of the beach and sand dunes and we found a smooth area of sand where we could open up the Rhino (should have dropped into two-wheel drive and maybe we could have reached that elusive "50"). Last picture is the famous Haystack Rock that is located off shore from Pacific City. I suspect it's about 6 miles away as the crow flies.
Later, W&B
