Those Young Guys – Finding Our Way
We’re headed north to British Columbia and Alberta in Canada for a few weeks visiting friends and family. We have been having lovely weather so it was a terrific drive north. We like to take our time and get stopped by early afternoon. We headed up through Idaho via part

The final countdown! We have stayed here before and find it to be a great go-to campground when other campgrounds in the area are either full or closed for the season. Many parks in the area don’t open until Mid March or End of March but Maryhill is open year

Just north of Newport a few miles and right off Hwy 101 (and I mean right off) is a forested campground called Beverly Beach State Park. It lies directly east of Hwy 101 (and I mean directly) and with a short walk under the bridge on Hwy 101 you are,

South Beach State Park is located right in the heart of Newport, Oregon right along the coast. The campground has almost 300 sites for both RVs and tenters. This equates to 9 loops, A-I. We were there just before peak season started and loops E-I were closed but we still

We headed north on Hwy 101 from Willits on up to Myers Flat in the Humboldt Redwoods State Park area. For the most part, Hwy 101 is not real bad as far as tight curves and narrow roads, those qualities that people who drive big rigs don’t like too much.

Next stop is Mendocino County. We know that there are many stretches along Hwy 1 that are not ideal for driving a big rig with a tow vehicle, especially Fort Bragg to Leggett, but we really wanted to tour the Mendocino Coast. So we thought we would find a place

I first watched Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds” when I was a young girl and it scared the bejesus out of me!! Every year I would get together with the neighborhood kids and we would watch the movie together, usually in the summertime when it was hot and all the windows
