Moving Forward

     Well its time to move forward again.  After spending the last 6 months here at Ft. Stevens as park hosts, we are moving on.  We have had a wonderful time here at the park and will miss all the rangers and the other hosts.  We will be just down the road south to Bar View at the Tillamook County Parks.  Bar View is between Garibaldi and Rockaway Beach, it is a big park and right on the beach and jetty.  Our friends Jimmy and Yvonne are there and helped us get the position there.  We are very excited to move there.  The site looks great, big on a corner with grass, flowers a few tree's, and one of the benefits the park gives is 100 gallon propane tank for each host. The dogs will love the grass and no pine needles.  We are going to be starting a mail forwarding service for those full time RV'rs, Boaters, Expats and anyone who lives mobile.  When we lived on the boat for 12 years we had to use a mail service as you can't get pkgs and  items delivered to P. O. Box you must have a physical address or they consider you indigent/homeless.  There isn't a service like this here so we are going to give it a try.  Its a low overhead business starting out just need a small space to start.  We are working with a realtor looking for small office space.  Got the business license and working on the web page with a customer data base interface system. More to come on this.  We are planning to stay on the Oregon Coast as Andrews health is good here and in the winter we will just go for a month or so to get out of the winter weather.  See pictures below of where we are going.

     On another note the new babies "Boogie" and "Boo" are doing great, they are bonding with us and we are able to handle them now with ease, on to the next bonding stage.  It won't be long and they will be riding around with us out of the pouch.  The dogs are doing great with them and want to lick them all the time.  We are slowly getting back on track with our life again.  Hope to be in a new RV possibly a fifth wheel by end of summer.

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
