BUT…
That means the flowers will be amazing when the sun shines. And the blue skies here are just breathtaking. And there doesn’t seem to be any pollution. And there’s no mosquitoes! And it is so nice and cool for sleeping at night!
All in all the rain isn’t so bad. At least, it will be acceptable if it stops long enough for us to move on up from Eugene to Portland.
We’ve been in Eugene for a week (and an extra day), but we haven’t done too much. Went shopping the first day, off to the coast again the next day, and did some cleaning projects on the rig during the week. Oh…and we got our hair cut! Sure did need it. Haircuts continue to be the most difficult part of this lifestyle for us. Mostly watched the clouds come in and out during the day.
Here are a few pictures from our trip over to the Oregon coast. We drove over to Florence, then north on the 101 to the Haceta Lighthouse, then south on the 101 to the Sand Dunes National Recreation Area.
It was quite a hike over the sand dunes and through the forest to get to the ocean.
But we made it!

I, too, am really tired of this rain and more rain. It's cold here in WY and the heater is going. That is soooo wrong. Great pictures.
We'll see if we can comment on your blog -- INCREDIBLE PICS as usual! Think we are skipping Spring & heading straight into summer...very humid today but no rain -- YAY!! Take care & enjoy the beautiful scenery!
this is a test of the emergency comment system.
Loralie, great pictures, as always. We are also hoping for some sunshine.
Jeri WAS having trouble posting comments on my blog, but now she can do it. I'll take a look at my settings and see what I can change. Its strange that some people can post and some can't. Odd.
Fabulous pictures! This certainly has been an unusual spring with all this rain. Normally rains do come but this is ridiculous. Maybe it means a fabulous summer!
Say hi to Tom and Donna for us. You taking any OP with you for Tom? We agree with the rain thing. We have had more days of rain then sun since we have come north.
