Summer Season Winding Down

Its starting to cool down and the streets are getting crowded again as our winteer visitors return.  The summer was great, not too hot really just a few days.  Its nice to see people returning and we have more people at activities again.  Looking forward to a great winter season that will be filled with new prospects and fun times.

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 ar...

Wow!! No More Life as We Knew it!

We never thought we would see this in our lifetime, the grandparents talked about it many years ago and said it would happen.  We have had many challenges the last few months, what with my heart attack and infection in my toe and lots of appointments.  Sunday the 29th of March we were at cookies for tacos and cards and Drew had a stroke and had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital.  There was a stroke specialist on teleconference with the team here and they administered the drug to stop the stroke and got it within the 45 min window.  His stroke was the left brain clot and has effected his right side. His right side is numb and his vision on right eye has no periferal vision.  He can walk and get around pretty good his leg drags, he leans and his balance isn't great.  Have been walking to end of our street every day, and getting lots of rest.  Could take up to 12-18 months to improve or may not improve.  We are on strick diets of course and tr...

Feels like Home

     We are back at Nehalem Bay State Park.  We are all settled into our new trailer, very nice and have lots of room.  Feels like a house again and a home.  Preston, Jen and the kids were up over the weekend to get their tent trailer we used.  Had an absolutely beautiful weekend with lots of bike riding and collecting a few sticks.  Preston brought his hookah so we sat around a campfire and sampled his Hawaiian blend tobacco, real smooth and good taste.  Andrew started his summer job as assistant ranger yesterday, and I  am doing odd jobs around park till June, then will move over to host site A2.  I have been making stuff with wine corks, coaster sets, hot plate pads and vegetable labels for the garden.  Will post some pictures. We plan on staying here in Nehalem after we are done hosting in August.  We are renting a space at the Nehalem Shores RV and cottages on the Nehalem river.  http://www.nehalemshores.com...
