August 23 & 24, 2010

Monday 23~~~~~Kent drove into town from the park this morning and he picked me up at the house and we drove to Portland. Kent wanted to check in on our friend Gary's dad who is in the hospital there. We took Kent's daughter Cindy out for lunch and we met his daughter Dee Dee later for a visit before we left for the beach house. The beach was gorgeous when we arrived there, so warm and sunny with lots of people on the beach. I took a picture of Pepsi sitting on his favorite spot under the game table and a picture of the "Twin Rocks" and the ocean from our from our deck. We drove over to Nehalem to our favorite tavern where we had chicken and joes and cold beer for dinner. There sure is a lot of changes at the beach since the last time I was there. So many new condos built and so many still sitting empty.
Tuesday 24~~~~~We didn't stay very late today, as we have to go back to work when we get home. Kent likes to get back to the park early Tuesday night so he can drive to loop and see who is leaving in the morning and who is extending, so he can give the office a heads up early in the morning for all those people who are at the gate by 6:30 AM. We stopped at the casino on our way home for dinner and an hours play on the slot machines. Neither of us won any money, but I only lost $5 which was good. I need to save my money for Jack Pot, Nevada when we go South in September. Kent left for the park when we got home, I stayed and baked another rhubarb pie for Kent and for his cousin Bill Koehler who is visiting us at the park tomorrow. They both like my rhubarb pie and so do I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yum Yum!!! I drove up to the park about 10 PM.
