Where the hell have you been Mike.......................

     Well we must be having a lot of fun, why else would it be not 5 but 10 days now between blogs!  Yep, we're still in Florence, OR and it's been a total joy and so relaxing not to mention such cool temps and no rain until yesterday.  The rain was and is again today so fine its basically a heavy mist or fog, not too hard to handle.  I'm not normally a rain guy, do not like rain or wind but this for the time now seems refreshing.  Snuggling beneath and in between flannel sheets and a blanket and a throw over that make for some great sleeping to say the least!
     Between dinners with friends, movies, a couple of rounds of golf, ACS relay for life events, a couple of trips to Three Rivers Casino and a whole lot of vegetating this has been a great 10 days.  We plan on pulling out of here tomorrow morning and heading back to Interstate 5 heading south into California, yes the fires have us a bit worried but folks we know along the way tell us I-5 is clear and should have no problems going into the Lake Tahoe area and on to Sacramento.  We want to also go back to the Watsonville area but realize we are running out of time.............wait we can't run out of time, but we did and do have an idea of when we wanted to arrive back in Phoenix.  As long as the cash holds out I'm kind of sure we might just find any time we need.  (but you know we miss the kids and grand kids immensely!)
     If there is going to be a problem from here on it's going to be our water problem!  Yes we may just have a major item to deal with upon our return (we don't want to spent anymore time waiting for the coach to under go repairs) our water system has a leak somewhere underneath the floor.  At this time if we hook up to city water the floor gets wet under the kitchen tile and living room carpet, even if we leave the coaches water pump on and don't hook to city water we still have the leak problem.  As of now we're using the pump and turning it on and off as needed and that seems to be working right now in a pinch.  Once again I'm hoping the extended warranty covers not only the leak and it's causes and repairs but the repair/replacement of damage done to the coach.  New flooring will be needed and we wanted to do that anyway so hopefully this problem will take care of getting that done under warranty.  Oh well just part of living in a house that rolls down the road....................
     We made our reservations this morning for our stay in the Sacramento area and now need to focus on the Tahoe area or somewhere near there.  We like Zephyr but it's another one of those places that are hard to get into without long range reservations.  Once again...........oh well, we're fly by the seat of your pants couples and love it that way!
     Mercer Lake RV resort here in Florence, OR was a super place, nice lake, boats and pines................NO INTERNET OR WIFI CONNECTS!  It will be a great place to park and relax in the future, but it will have to be after Beverly quits working and will not need those lines of communications open while on the road.  We're spending our last few days of Florence at the Three Rivers Casino RV lots and are cooking with 4G and 5 bars!  My lady has been over-joyed!
     Will try not to take so many days between blogs............Life is all good and we're loving each other and each day more and more!
