Today we visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory to see how the cheese is made. It was a hugh operation with lunch bar, ice cream saloon, the history story of the factory and factory tour of where and how it is made.They are having their 100 anniversary this year. They make 167 thousand pounds of cheese a day.
On the way back the guys visited the Tillamook Air Museum. They had a mini guppy that they found interesting..

Today we woke to sunshine, hurray! The guys went golfing at the Chinook Winds Golf Club in Lincoln City and Shirley and I went to check out the 60 outlet stores. They has great sales and we managed to find something. The guys cooked us supper and then we all went for a swim and spent some time in the hot tub.

Naskowin,Oregon, April 3,2009

Just a short trip today to Naskowin, Oregan. We had a sad day as we had to put Taz (one of our dogs)down. He has been getting worse for the last couple of weeks and wasn't eating anything. We will take his ashes home to spread in the yard.

We went to Lincoln City to have supper at the Chinook Winds Casino and again leave them some money. Looking for the sun, hope we find it tomorrow.

We awoke to rain today although it is forecasting it to stop. We are off to the Sea Lion Caves, the dunes, old town Florence where we stopped at the International C-food Market to enjoy a seafood chowder for lunch. There were l00's of sea lions at the cave and many tourist shops in old town. Now it is time to plan another day.

South Jetty, Oregon, April 1,2009

Today we went on the Oregon Coast Hwy towards Florence. We passed through Prehistoric Gardens where there were lots of dinosaur statues, the Oregon Dunes, arriving at South Jetty R.V. Park where we were welcomed with rain. The first we have seen since Pilot Knob in December. Along the way the roads were lined with the Scotch broom yellow bush. It was so pretty but I know it is a curse. We went to the Three Rivers Casino for a cajiun supper and left our dollars.
