We've gotten a chance to put some miles on the Scooters. It was 12 - 15 miles from the campground to the lighthouse and most of the time we rode them. We learned pretty quickly that vacationers are waaaay more impatient than they should be! We'd just find a spot to safely pull off the road and let them pass. No sense adding to their road rage cuz we're traveling 5 miles under the posted limit. They're not nearly as aggressive when we're in the truck going 5 miles under the posted limit.
Every day we watch the national weather and see the sweltering heat throughout the country and consider ourselves fortunate that we're here on the Oregon Coast where the temps have rarely been above 70. Our tans are fading. lol

Gail's 85 year old mother made a road trip out from Idaho with a neighbor. They traveled to Oregon sites along the coast and enjoyed some Tillamook ice cream. Her sister is out for a few days now and guess we will have to have some more ice cream! YUM. Guests in the RV is a challenge, especially without a hide a bed. The weather has been pretty nice, for the coast, pretty sunny most of the day but still not hot.
We've now moved in cleaning campsites. Not too tough, pick up litter, scoop out the firepits. We do get some odd things occasionally and the majority of campsite "litter" is peanut or sunflower seeds (I hate them and leave them), trying to burn food, especially egg shells and candy wrappers. Overall, the sites are pretty clean. Not too tough duty in exchange for the camping and the coast.
We're looking forward to our next assignment in Utah, after a couple of weeks in Idaho to finish the snow roof project and visit friends and family.
