Hang’n in Bend Oregon

Saturday:  September 15, 2012 

We decided to do some more domestic stuff this morning.  We wanted to get all of this stuff done before the rally in Harrisburg, OR.  While doing so we meet a couple from San Clemente, California.  They are planning to full time RV in 2 years!  They are now in their late 60’s!   They look great though.  They bought a 1998 diesel pusher for $30k with 40k miles to try out the lifestyle.   They beat us in miles per days.  They went 2700 miles in the last 10 days!  Anyway they left a couple of hours after we met them in the laundry room.

After the laundry, we went up to the top of an old volcano.  We saw a lot of full hook-up camping that we would have liked.  We really want to do some “camping” our style with full hook ups but in the woods.

We took the suggestion of our New Jersey Friend (John Hannon, whose native to Eugene) to have dinner at the Pine Tavern in downtown Bend.  We had a great dinner with a great waiter out on the patio near the river.  I had prime rib and Patty had the Filet.  We also had 2 bottles of Oregon wine.

We were back at the RV by 9pm and in bed by 10pm. 

Tomorrow we travel to the RV Dreams Rally in Harrisburg, OR.  We will be with many Full timers for the first time since we became full time.  Can’t wait!!

Stay tuned!
