Celebrate the Small Things: Ocean at Cannon Beach

Holiday on the Oregon coast at beautiful Cannon Beach..... 

We did not anticipate every RV campsite would be full. We spent the night in a hotel, but the rate was reasonable......only $25 more than a typical RV campsite. 

I LOVE THE OCEAN....SO WORTH IT!

 

Happy Weekend Everyone!

Day Trip to Joseph, Oregon

Vince and I took a day trip to Joseph, Oregon with friends on Sunday, a 30 minute flight from where we live (three hours by car). Vince built this RV8 in our garage over a twelve-year period and flew it for the first time in 2009. It was quite a project and I even learned how to rivet!! Someday (hopefully soon) it will be painted blue and white.  

Joseph Airport is one mile from the town of Joseph. 
We saw this old barn along the way.

Joseph is named after Chief Joseph, a famous Nez Perce Indian chief. (me on left)

Vince with friends Cathy and Mike (they have an 
RV7 that Mike built!)

Wallowa County Museum. ~Sigh~ CLOSED

 

Vince and me (Joseph has beautiful bronze statues everywhere). Too bad most of the shops were closed. After walking around, we ate dinner at a restaurant in a nice outdoor setting and flew home.

Weather was great, but a little bumpy flying in!
