greetings from gold coast, oregon

We are heading back to Californialand and are now stopped in Gold Coast
Oregon. We stayed the night at Bullard Beach State Park. This is close to a
beach but not quite at the beach. There is a 3/4 mile hike through dunes to
the beach. When we got there, we discovered that we were practically the
only people on the beach for miles and miles. This again proves my point
that you eliminate 90% of the people for every 1/4 miles from a road that
you travel. It's a slightly more complicated theory than that. We've figured
that it also depends on the elevation gain, weather, and country of origin
(Europeans seem to be more immune to the 90% rule) and a few other
factors.. Anyway, we eliminated about 99.99% of the people and had a nice
beach all to ourselves. It was really cool..
We came back and cleaned our lobster mushrooms and chantrelles and made
what we have deemed Cape Lookout Cream of mushroom soup. IT was yummy!!
We left Bullard beach and went to Bandon and went horse back riding on
the beach. IT was really cool. The horse back riding place is for sale, $1
million dollars and 1 block from the beach. Anyway it was fun and an
interesting fantasy to think about having a horse riding business on the
beach..
We stopped at an art gallery just outside of town and bought a really
beautiful painting from the artist. Tonite we are going to stay in
Brookings, and look for mushrooms at this place that we were at a few weeks
ago. We found some baby chantrelles, and now we think that may be big and
tasty so we need to check!
So far I think we have liked Bandon, Oregon area the best of all of our
coastal oregon spots.

Till next wireless internet spot (by the way this is the FIRST wireless
internet spot we have been to that actually costs us money, everything else
has been free. We are very surprised by the ubiquity of free internet all
over)
