NEW OILS & FILTERS

After the windshield had been replaced in the motor home, we drove north to Albany, where we met Bob & Brenda Nelson for dinner.  We first met the Nelson's several years ago, when they lived in Enterprise, OR, across the street from Bob & Diana Rush.  They have since moved to Albany, where Bob insists that he is finally retired.  We had a nice visit with our friends, and I was able to thank them for the referral to their family dentist.  When we said adios, Brenda left us with a batch of her fabulous scones, which were gone the next morning.    

Yesterday, the motor home went into the shop at Cummins Coach Care, for it's annual service.  In addition to the usual change of engine oil, oil filter, & two fuel filters, I had the air dryer cartridge changed, and differential gear oil replaced with synthetic oil.  By mid day, the job was done, and I parked in one of the RV sites, where I quickly got the A/C turned on.  It's been hot here in the Eugene/Coburg area, with daytime temps in the 90's.  Unfortunately, Nancy's motor home wasn't finished until after 4pm, partially due to the longer list of things that needed to be done. 

This morning, we're headed over to the coast, where the weather forecast is for much cooler temperatures.  Our first stop for a few days, will be the Elks in Florence, then, it's north to Whalers Rest for a couple of weeks,  a Thousand Trails park near Newport.  Our plan is to stay along the OR and WA coast, into Sep, when we'll start thinking about returning to AZ.
