to our summer home

On Saturday we made it to our final summer destination....Willamette Wine Country RV Park.  It was not without drama....the site was not good for our size RV and we heard for the first time that we can't get regular mail delivery here....only UPS or FedEx delivered to our site!  We moved to a different site but had to wait till Monday to figure out what to do about the mail.....that created a significant amount of angst!  All ended well....we now have a box at the local Post Office.....where everybody knows your name.....Dayton, Oregon is a very little town....and folks are incredibly helpful and friendly.  The park is nice.....I'll take some pics later in the week....there are several permanent residents.  So we're now in the process of getting settled in and learning our way around the area.  The closest town for shopping and other needs is McMinnville....only 5 miles down the road.  It's very quaint with a downtown not unlike downtown St. Pete.  Tomorrow is the weekly Farmers' Market which we'll take in.  It feels to know we'll be in one place for an extended period.  We've met the neighbors on both sides of us....both are "permanent".

We found a groomer in McMinnville and that's where Mischka is spending the day.....he really needed a bath!

The night before we headed here we went to dinner with Dean's cousin John.  He lives in Ashland....a really cool college town....but has a cabin up in the mountains....that's where we had dinner....a long and winding road to get there....and few guardrails!.....

Until next time.....
Namaste,
