Happy New Year everyone!  If you click on the link above it should take you to the picture gallery. Click on the album called Humbug  Mountain when you get there and you can see some of the pictures from the campground.We left Lincoln City heading south to Brooking, Oregon.  It was really windy and Jimmy was having a hard time keeping the van straight on the road.  We stopped at an information center in Pt. Orford and I could barely get out of the van.  The man in the information center told us they had gust of 85mph.  He also said to be careful because the next stretch of road was very dangerous for winds.  We started off but Jimmy looked a bit worried and he always say "You worry when I worry" so I did.  We spotted a cute pretty empty campground a few miles later and Jimmy said "prudent seamanship is any port in storm"  so Oh Humbug State Park it was.  Turned out to be a good spot but it blew so hard all night with blinding rain we didn't go far.  We tried to walk down to the ocean to watch the waves but when we got even close the sand was blowing so hard into our eyes and face we had to go back.
New Years Day we headed south on Hwy 101.  The weather is much better.  Little drizzle and light winds.  Tonight we are in the RV Park that is where theBenbow Inn we stayed at a year ago is.  We may stay at the Inn tomorrow depending on the weather.
