Retirement on the Oregon Coast


The weather is getting nice now and Jeff has been able to go out on the dunes with his buggy........and next weekend is Rhody Days here in Florence which is the first car show of the season for us.
I went to Spain & Portugal in March/April and saw ALOT......we moved from city to city every couple of days......too much for this old gal.....spent a day in Morocco......very interesting. At the end of April, until May 13th, I was in Boone, Iowa helping my girlfriend, Rosann, prepare her house to sell......she retires June 30th and is moving to her property in Palo, Iowa. She is my "sister"......we enjoy our time together......she is my travel buddy also. Italy in Nov/Dec..........
Jeff and I are taking the 5th wheel up to Ferndale, Washington, in June to visit friends that moved there from Sacramento last year. We travel with three dogs and a parrot...........the other seven birds have to stay home !!!
I have tomatoes growing in the sunroom this year.......they don't do well outside here......we have been harvesting LOTS of asparagus this year......they love the sandy beach soil.
We have a good life and don't take anything for granted.........
