GOODBYE TO SOUTH JETTY





Today, we leave the South Jetty Thousand Trails, and will travel about an hour up the coast to the next Thousand Trails, which is near Newport, OR. We have enjoyed our week here at South Jetty. This particular preserve is heavily wooded and more like a real forest service type campground. Due to all the trees, we had to search a little bit for a site where we could get our satellite TV antenna to work (sort of), and we didn't get a spot with a sewer connection, but that's not really a big deal with our large holding tanks. Even with the Memorial Weekend, it wasn't overly crowded, and is definitely a Thousand Trails we will use again.
Speaking of satellite TV, after locking my King Dome antenna onto the satellite, and turning it off, I have been losing the connection, which is to say the least, a bit frustrating, when your favorite TV show is on. I called our friends, Len & Ellie, to inquire about their Winegard, high definition dish antenna that they acquired over the winter. They say it works great, and we may be headed for an upgrade to HD when we get over to Coburg for our appointment at Coach Care next week. We will be attending an FMCA rally in Albany, starting on the 2nd, and I think I might wait to see if there are any vender's at the rally with a deal on HD, satellite antennas.
