Rain. Rain. Rain. Cold. Wet. Frustrated. Impatient.  That was our day today starting from Lincoln City, OR.  We stopped in Florence to dry out and use the library.  I took about 1.5 hrs to grade my MBA weekly assignments online.  It was a very well used, pretty library.  We ate lunch then hoping the weather would clear.  But, alas, the rain followed us down the coast until past 1:00 PM.  

We had about 45 minutes of clear weather and dry roads.  Then we just had semi-wet roads and some mist.  Our goal was Brookings, OR because it is near the California border and the Redwoods National Park.  Our bags leaked some–mine because I left one side pocket unzipped, and Andy’s because his rain cover for some reason does not fit over everything.  We visited a laundramat and dried it all out in a few minutes.

Now we are tired and ready for a good day in Northern California tomorrow.  The dinasauer pix are for Bjorg, Joshua, and Brycie; so Stacy and  Heidi take note.  Uncly Bob stopped in the rain to take a pix for his grand-nephews.
