Florence, OR

     We've been in Florence for a couple of days now and will be here until the 23rd and it looks like we were lucky to get the reservations.  We're at the Port of Siuslaw Marine and RV park, nothing real fancy but very adequate for sure.  The best part might be that we're in walking distance to the marina, down town "Old Town" and all the great eateries and shops!
     We decided on Tony's RV Service and Repair of Coos Bay to find and fix our water leak and do the remodeling of the coach, basically new flooring.  Bev opted for an interlocking wood grain looking laminate that's very durable and has much elasticity to it.  We've also decided to eliminate the couch-hid-abed, the recliner that came with the coach and replace them with new.  We are leaning toward theater type seating recliners and a simpler one for the other side.  Tony's plans on keeping the coach for only 4-5 days to accomplish this, as long as we don't continue to ad little this and that's!  So now we'll be traveling who knows where at this time until August 6th when we need to be back in Coos Bay, OR. to drop of the motor home.
     We have been traveling the west coast of the United States since we left Havasu Springs RV resort the first week of June, and other that a week or so visiting family in Sacramento the weather has been in a word "chilly"....... Even Sacramento cooled off into the mid to upper 80's while we were there.  Today we're looking at partly sunny with a high of 65 and little breeze off the coast.
     Our friend Al Rojas moved here to Florence some years ago and we're visited him two years ago and again last night and days to come.  Al tends bar at the Bridgewater Fish house and Zebra bar, so we had dinner and drinks there last night.  It was good seeing Al again and even his son Sean was working there taking care of tables last night.  Some wonderful seafood, Bev had Halibut and I had the Seafood Thermadore..............after crab cakes and oyster shooters!
     We will be enjoying a walk into old town after getting our yard further setup.......need lounge chairs out to relax and enjoy this weather!  Checkout our digs here:  www.portofsiuslaw.com
