Our Arrival


Camper

When we arrive back in Coos Bay we found this in our driveway. I knew it was not a small camper - but it takes up the whole driveway!! We will need to move it ~ and soon!!

Actually soon came really quickly... the very next day Clint was showing us what had been fixed, changed, and upgraded since we've been gone1 We now have 4 new fruit trees, the lawns are all green and look beautiful! Several problem spots have been filled in... It all looks really wonderful!!

On Saturday we went and got some lawn furniture and began the chore of putting everything together.... We could have certainly been on Funniest Videos... but . . . no. On Sunday, Clint decided that it would be a good time to move the trailer to a better spot. Since we have to go under a tv cable line and around a tree - we need to do it while Sallie is home - so she can also assist!! Talk about wonderful friends!! Never would have happened without them!

It took the entire afternoon to get this done to Clint's satisfaction and it looks really good. Now all I have to do is clean it out and get it ready for a new floor covering. It is rather dirty.... like.... caked mud in quite a few places.... but nothing that can't be cleaned.... it just takes time.... lots of time....

And I go back to the lawn furniture. Got it done except for the "dome" on the canopy. It split a seam so Sallie is going to sew it for me - again what a great friend!

And that was our first weekend back in the Great Northwest... now when we fall into bed (or, in my case, chair) . . we are both exhausted and sleep really soundly!! Oh, it's great to be back!!
