ontheroad- OR coast

Fri day Aug. 7

We spent the morning with Bill and Judy and then drove 4 boring hours out to the coast. The scenery on the drive were ttall trees but if flet dull. We arrived at Bandon-by-the-sea about 3:45. It doesn't look like much-ther is Old Town by the marina and the rest is rather spread out along Beach Loop Rd. It was hard to find a decent room here. At last we stumbled on to a Best western who an oceanfront suite that hadn't yet rendted so they gave it to us for the standard room rate. It is one of these oceanfront rooms that is great far from the ocean. In order to get to the ocean we had to walk down and cross the road and find a path marked Beach access which led through vegetation a distance down to a very wide clear beach of very fine sand. Finding our way out of the beach was tricky as they had no sign "road access" so we had to wend our way tall grasses and maybe poison oak--I will know that soon.
