Well good morning Coos Bay its a sunny day today. Up and at it early fabulous buffet breakfast......Rick and Earl were chatting up an elderly lady, she took their picture lol Earl is driving this morning and we are off at 8:35 WAIT he seems to be turning onto a four lane one way highway and it isn't going our way so he hits the breaks unfortunately for Cheryl she has just done up her seat belt and nearly losses her head...OK now we r going the right way. In the road again.. Today is our longest day we pass by Brandon by the sea and gas up at Port Orford.... We pass through Siskiyou National Forest, Gold beach where the fishing is plentiful we see about 40 boats out there. Earl gives up the wheel and Rick takes us threw Lake Earl and Fort Dick. Rick shows us the Pelican Bay Penitentiary we get stopped at the gate but they tell us you can tour the facility!!! Ricks mouth drops open unfortunately you have to do the paper work so that's a must for next year.We to pictures of Paul Bunyon at the Trees of Mystery...Next stop Target to get Earl a belt, hoody, razors, deodorant.....The boys want to eat in the parking lot but we think no let's have another picnic...Rick floors it as Cheryl is hooking up the GPS and almost takes her teeth out...We don't find any picnic tables in Eureka and its after 2 Earl is starving cause we never feed him so we are having lunch in the Avenue of Giants on the side of the road on the tailgate....kinda if like a stuff and run....then as usual just up the road is a sunny site with picnic tables....Now we r off to the Napa valley it is 30 Outside the truck and its getting to be about 5:30ish....We stop in Healburg we hit three hotels all full booked right up........Rick sweet talk the girls into calling the next town for us its $200 a night or all full up......Cheryl and I decide to ask the GPS for hotels she is smart, so I'm directing Rick and every time he turns she changes her mind ...I'm pointing and laughing he's twisting and turning the truck, I can't breath We are peeing our pants oh we laughed so hard but in the end she didn't help us at all...Eventually we get an Americas Best extended stay and have to share a room, there is a casino next door and its 7:30 so we r done for the night.....No elevators here so the boys pack all the bags upstairs.Rick decides he should move the truck to a safer spot so we head to the room .........I go downstairs to get some pillows and there is Rick he has backed up into a young guys work truck......Yep he did banged up his right side bumper hardly any damage to the truck but the guy just got the job so he wants to go by the book.....that means Paper work calling the cops and listening to a bit of bible thumping....All in all he took it well says he isn't going to wash it ever again...no point now lol So now its close to nine and Earl is bitching about food again so we r off to Applebys....No wifi at hotel so Earl packed the tablet over and stubbed his bare toe on a sprinkler and threw the tablet across the parking lit Cgeryl is peeing her pants again .....I think its time for bed...Till tomorrow....
