PACIFIC CITY THOUSAND TRAILS PRESERVE 7/29-8/3/2012

July 25-29 we stayed at Cliff and Linda's to relax, work and play Canasta.  Then on July 29 we hitched up and drove on to Pacific City Thousand Trails Preserve up near Tillamook, OR.  This preserve has been one of our favorite haunts through the years due to its closeness to the Pacific Ocean and it's beautiful hills and forests.
Once we got there we found we had left our camera at Cliff and Linda's.  Cliff had a school project to tend to in Monmouth at Western Oregon University which was about 60 miles from us.  So, he brought the camera and Wayne drove over to retrieve it.  Cliff was staying in the dorms there, so we had dinner there in the cafeteria, visited and then Wayne went back to Pacific City.
Other than that, we have spent these days here, relaxing, reading, walking, going for drives, looking at real estate, playing canasta and catching up on journals and these blog entries.  We love our life out on the road and are using our time to study, write and plan out our future.  Life is good.  Remember to be thankful for your blessings, don't listen to naysayers, look on the bright side of things, realize that under all green luscious beautiful grass you will find manure and worms so stay focused on the green grass, never get caught up with those that try to convince you that good is bad.  Every cloud has a silver lining, look to the sun behind it rather than the rain soaked cloud.  Play the "Glad Game"!!!.
