and it rains in Oregon...

Yes, it does occassionally rain in Oregon. It started raining last night and is just kind of drizzling today. Although, there are reports that we should get heavy rainds later today and tomorrow. We arrived in Oregon at the end of August. We belong to a RV group called the Escapees and there is a park in Southern Oregon where we like to go. We have been coming to the park for about 7 years and have lots of friends here. It was time for us to take a break from taking care of an RV park in CA and relax a bit. About a week after we arrived, the office informed us that we would be getting our lot. That means that we will have a permanent lot here. Once we paid the money for a lifetime lease we got our lot. At first we were told, we would be getting one lot but someone above us on the list dropped off and we had to take another lot. Our lot faces south and we get the afternoon sun on the side of the motorhome. We can always trade lots if something comes up. Right now we are not planning on doing any landscaping until next year. Since we have been here we have attended lots of dinners with friends. Once a week there is a friendship meeting at the clubhouse. People take turns hosting the meeting. I was the host last week. It was fun. People were surprised that I was not scared to talk in front of people! Imagine that! OCHS speech class and working in personnel helped.
We were suppose to go the Oregon Coast with a group of people for three days but we needed to have some repairs done to the motorhome and the only time they could fit us in was during the rally to the coast. We took the RV to Eugene (an hour away) and then drove in the car about 2 hours to Portland. There was a quilt show there and I wanted to meet my friend, Trudie there. It was a short but a very nice visit. I wish I could remember to update this on a regular basis but we are so busy up here. Until next time, stay out of the rain.
