Coos Bay September 10,2012

We woke up to overcast and cool this morning.  It rained during the night so the grounds were icky to say the least.   Today was planning day and seems our timing is off this trip due to weather.  The guys went out to check the boat rental for crabbing and was told due to a storm coming in and high winds there would be no crabbing until Friday.  Since we are leaving Friday that is not going to be an option.  

Some of the gals went into  Coos Bay to go to Freddie Myers.  We do not have one in California so it was one of first shopping excursions.  We were wandering around the store and find the guys in the little snack shop eating donuts and bagels and just all that good stuff.  We went to the Mills casino for lunch.  We were good, just had lunch and did not make any deposits.  I did not get much on this outing except we stopped in Charleston to check out what stores were there.  All we could find is a thrift shop open, I have to say I did find a good buy there, NMDJ are generally $100.00 which is ridiculous for a pair of jeans but I found a pair in there for $8.00.  

When we returned to camp, down time for a couple of hours before our Hamburger night.  A big thanks to our Wagon master Ed and Dorothy, they put on a fine BBQ with the help of our cooks George and Butch.   The gals provided great side dishes and as usual everything was awesome!

We have the use of the Yurik for our events here at Oceanside RV Park.  It is a neat building and so handy for our meals and whatever events we have.  Nice TV in there and there were some watching the Raider Game tonight.  Dorothy, Betty, Ed, Oneta, Bev and I played Sequence, Dave, April, Len and Paula were playing a card game golf 9 I think is what it was called.  The rest of the group just visited.  Sort of a nice easy day overall after two days of driving.  Not sure what is on the agenda for tomorrow yet, I am sure we will find something fun to do.... 

I am going to try and get pictures on in the next day or so.  Ed got me an Apple Mac Book Air and I am having difficulty getting the pictures in order and edited for the blog.  If I do not figure it out on this trip, I will post them when I get home so be sure to check back.

So, until next time........
