Heading back to Oregon

Our rolling home is headed back to familiar stomping grounds--the Portland metro area of OR.

We'll be staying in Canby, Oregon "property sitting" Boomer friends, Marlene & Richard's place, for a few months while they hit the road to find new adventures. We met this lovely couple in Quartzsite at Boomerville a few years ago. They built the earthen oven that still remains there in the desert awaiting their return for those of you that my remember that project.

We have enjoyed our time these past 6 months on the road and visited nine states. The fall was spent in ID, UT, CO, OK, NM, TX & MO where we saw some spectacular sights in several National Parks. The winter months were primarily spent in CA & AZ, where the weather and good friends on the road were the attraction this time around.

But we will soon be back where we can play with the grandkids, hang out with our adult children, spend quality time with special friends we haven't seen for quite some time, catch up on all those never-ending tasks, chores & appointments than need to be done & we won't have to figure out where everything is or how to get there. Dianne is especially looking forward to not having to pump her own gas and not paying sales tax everything she buys--Yippee!

It's good to go home--no matter where it is. If anyone is passing by this way give us a holler--we'd love to see you.
