Guess What? Another Adventure

Just when you think you are done......it happens?  Life happens.  We were getting ready and planning a bike trip across Oregon and California.  We were getting ready to build MAB (motor assist bikes) for the trip with the help of an expert builder of bikes.  We were getting very excited about it and had been doing our research and planning.  But, yes here comes the but......Life happens and the people in our lives come first.  We had talked about Oregon and how much we love the rainy winters (not) and toyed with the thought of moving to a warmer but yet still humid climate place and looked at the possibilities.  Then we decided no we would stay here in Oregon because we are close to the son and his family and we can see the grandkids more.  So we put our thoughts of warmer place on back burner.

Well the thoughts on the back burner have come forward again as Sierra and the new baby need some help and we are going to move to warmer place & get big enough place for us, her and baby Hunter to live.  After much research of places and climates and military bases available and all the things we want, the new destination is Corpus Christi Texas.  We have found a place there and plan to move the 1st of January.  We are selling our model cottage here on the river and heading out.  Sierra is back at her folks right now, after going to Kentucky.  The daughter helped her and baby drive to Ky (Ft Campbell) and get her house set up in base housing.  The daughter stayed a week to help her and her husband Matt get situated.  Apparently things did not go well after the daughter (Kyp) left and a week later Sierra and baby flew back to California and we made a plan.   We hope to get to new place and we can have her belongings and babies stuff shipped from Kentucky the first week in January.  She is very disappointed of course and only has the essentials for baby, as her household stuff just arrived to Ky. the day before she left.  At least it is still in boxes ready to ship back.  So we will share a place and when baby is a little older Sierra can go back to school and we will be there to help with baby.

So we are pretty excited now to move and go help her get started in life with her new baby.  At first I was sad to leave, it was just feeling like home here and I will really miss the people we have met and the small town feel.  I absolutely love our place here on the river and we were getting it fixed up nice. We both are really looking forward to the warm weather.  Living on the boat in Florida and Bahamas 12 years had spoiled us for certain as we keep seeking out that warm weather.  Can't say I will mind being around the baby 24/7 either, he is so adorable.

Closing Out the Year

     We are glad indeed to be at the end of 2015.  not one of our better years for sure.  We just wondered aimlessly this past year making one bad decision after another.  It seems since we had to leave Las Vegas when Andrew became sick we have been lost.  Our life was completely changed in a 6-8 month period very dramatically. It was very overwhelming for us and we had made good friendships and lasting bonds with people there in our community.  That was suppose to be our forever home.  Since leaving Vegas we have been to California, Oregon, Corpus Christie TX, Hawaii, and back to Oregon again. I am almost certain that we are home in Oregon to stay.  We may go for a few months in winter someplace but plan to stay here. We simply don't have the energy or desire to go again. At any rate we hope this next year graces us with stability and helps us to find our perfect spot here on the Oregon Coast to land.  We are looking to buy something here.  We have a couple things we are consideri

Summer Season

     Well we are off to a great summer here on the Oregon Coast! It has been a busy month for us as we moved from Ft. Stevens south to Tillamook county Park.  We have been enjoying the change and the park here, and an opportunity presented itself for us to manage another RV park close by also in Tillamook ( Wilson River RV Park ).  The park came under new ownership and he was given our names as somebody who could be his managers of the park.  We met with him last week and accepted the position.  The park has been neglected for the last year as it was being held by the bank and a property management company was overseeing the park.  Nothing a little elbow grease and few repairs can't fix.  It is a prime location for fishing and hunting as it sits right on the river, and of course there is all the attractions of the coast and Tillamook here as well.  We are excited for the challenge of this new adventure. We will miss our friends at the county park but will be close still to BBQ and

Our Plans are like Jello Sometimes it just doesn't set!

 We had a change of plans, and came to California where we decided to sell the motor home.  We didn't expect it to sell in two days time.  We arrived to San Clemente on the 1st of December and sold motor home on 3rd.  We rented an apartment in the downtown (1 block over from Main Street Del Mar) area close to the beach.  We had a great holiday with some of the family and Shawn was home also.  We are enjoying being close to family and our new great grand baby is absolutely adorable.  She is the happiest baby I've ever seen.  We have gotten all our medical appointments under way and scheduled and it feels good to be in one place settled again.  We're enjoying walking the beach everyday and all the little shops and restaurants.  Don't miss the motor home it was a lot of stress for us and after Drew's stroke was just too much to handle.  We did enjoy our trips through the summer and made good use of it.  So now we are in San Clemente for at least a year we signed a leas
