Florence To Wimer, Oregon

Because we have 4,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.
I’m currently in my 22nd year of full-time RVing and my lifestyle is changing, For more info click Here

Yesterday I drove the motorhome 187 miles from Florence to Wimer, Oregon.

 

 

Wimer, Oregon… is 13 miles north of Rogue River. It’s the location of Mary’s rental property which has recently decided to sell. It’s currently under contract and scheduled to close in about three weeks. She arrived yesterday and will be selling off some of her furnishings this weekend. I’ve stopped by to give her a helping hand.

Most of yesterday’s trip was om Interstate 5…

As always you may left click upon an image to see an enlarged view and then click once again to see an even larger view…

About one mile from Mary’s home…

Mary has seven acres…

My parking spot…

The usual dinette window photo…

 

 

I expect to be here for several days.

 

 

NOTE: THE INTERNET SIGNAL AT MARY’S LOCATION IS VERY WEAK AND VERY, VERY SLOW. HENCE, I WILL NOT BE PUBLISHING ANY MORE BLOG POSTINGS UNTIL I LEAVE HERE. SO, DON’T WORRY ABOUT ME IF YOU DON’T HEAR FROM ME FOR SEVERAL DAYS.

The covered bridge in Wimer, Oregon has a 10,000 pound load limit. The motorhome weighs 16,000 pounds so I have to take a different route around it…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE PHOTOS.

 Forecast for today is rain showers and 46 degrees.

Enjoying nice weather is another joy in the life of a full-time RVer! The red dot on the below map shows my approximate location in the State of Washington. You may double left-click the map to make it larger…

 

 

 

Enjoying 65-75 degree temperatures with low humidity most of the year is a primary joy in the RVing lifestyle!

My current travel rig is a 2006 Fleetwood 26′ Class A Motorhome and a towed 1986 Ford Bronco II, Eddie Bauer Model. This photo was taken in the desert at Slab City near Niland, California…

On October 27, 2012, I created a two-minute video titled America The Beautiful. The music America The Beautiful is by Christopher W. French. The photos, which I randomly selected, are from the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Montana, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Tennessee, Washington and West Virginia (not shown in that order)…are mine. Yup, That’s me standing in front of the Post Office in Luckenbach, Texas…Y’all!

Heron Lake State Park – New Mexico Day 55 (GA203)

 Mary is no longer available for RV traveling, but we remain good friends.
Because we have 4,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.
I’m currently in my 22nd year of full-time RVing and my lifestyle is changing, For more info click Here

---

The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails South Jetty RV Resort in Florence, Oregon. I expect to depart here later this morning.

 

 

Since my RVing life is changing (see above), I’m starting to re-visit previously visited places. So rather than constantly re-blogging past entries, I’ve decided to do something different.

 

 

In 2011-2013, Mary and I did a 682 day, 12,679 miles in the motorhome and 8,000 miles in the Bronco, circumnavigation of the United States, which I called The Great Adventure. I called it so because other than my oldest granddaughter’s high school graduation in June in Connecticut, I didn’t know where we would be going or when we would be there!</div?

 

 

So, unless I do something really different and unusual warranting a new blog entry, I’ll be posting entries from that trip.

This entry was posted August 13, 2012…

 

 

The motorhome is still parked at Heron Lake State Park about 20 miles south of Chama, New Mexico while I am recovering from my May 27th accident. To read about my recovery status, click this link… https://otrwjam.wordpress.com/recovery-status-page/

 

 

I’ve been here for several weeks now and have photographed everything worth seeing within a 30 mile radius. One thing I do not seem to run out of is more beautiful sunsets…

 

 

Here are some photos that I took recently…
