Today is our first day of steady rain since we left Yuma over a month ago. And, if the weather report is correct, we will have off and on rain through the next several days. Being in the motorhome, the rain seems a little more confining than when at home. We have to learn that this isn't any different than a rain day in Yuma.On Wednesday we went all the way back to Junction City in the car to pick up an art piece we purchased last week. Its a steel wagon wheel with metal trees and an elk in the center. The artist needed a week to add 'Rainbow Acres', the name we decided to use for our Show Low lot. Theres a picture of the art piece and Wade the artist with pictures attached to this post.
We also stopped at Guaranty RV to pick up some drawer latches we need to fix ones that are failing in the rig.
On Thursday we drove to Tillamook and toured the cheese factory. Its a self guided tour with educational stations and view down into a working section of the factory. There were free samples of a half a dozen different cheeses to whet the appetite, followed by the ice cream store and cheese store. We succumbed to both. They also have a cafe restaurant in the same area. So, free parking.. free tour.. and free cheese. What's not to like.
The drive down the coast was very picturesque and enjoyable, but I'm constantly reminded that we're enjoying a part of their three months or so of summer and that it's a different world entirely during the other nine months of the year. I'm sure the winters are enjoyable as well, but probably not my cup of tea.
