After arriving in Coos Bay, we parked in our friends cul-de-sac and promptly sat in beautiful back patio, with waterfalls, and just visited.

The next morning....not early, we went to the Pancake Mill for brunch. Jimmy and Joanie had lunch, while Leroy and I had breakfast. Then we drove around town, drove out to an area where lots of ATVs go play in the Oregon Dunes and sat and visited with Mark and Sharon . We were just seeing the sights and where their business was...just goofed off all day. The next day we got in the Hummer and they got in their Jeep and off we went to the sand dunes......right on the ocean! It was sooooo pretty! We drove out to the New Carisa...a piece of a shipwreck near the beach, then the doggies had to go nuts, running like wild Indians, in and out of the surf.After that, we just went bombing around in the sand for awhile. Not too much....we don't want Leroy to get hurt (he just had back surgery). We had a really nice time....and their cat, Kobe, and Shadow became new BFF (best friends forever). We will be leaving for Grants Pass, tomorrow, to see Bob and Nadine.
