We stayed at Harris Beach SP a couple of days last spring. Loved the area, but the park camping area was a challenge. The roads are narrow and most of the sites are square-on to the road. I guess the place pre-dates 102" wide, 40'long rigs and slide-outs.

Oregon has many parks likely built in the 40's, 50's and 60's when camping ment just that, a tent!
Their newest park all RV spaces are 50'+ with 50 amp full hookups.

Reminds me of the Brad Paisley song, "Better Than This". Junior stands up and says this is pretty good boys but what if a bus load of women, really good looking women suddenly drove up and Emeral Lagasse showed up with kibasa, etc, etc.

Okay...my evening at Brookings 'could' have been better after all, but then I'd have been single again. So...hhmmm...but a bus load of good lookin women and some grub from Emeral...shoot, man...that's just not fair.

Yesterday I played golf in short sleeves and tomorrow it's supposed to snow/rain here. Wonder where all the global warming experts are right now. I understand they have all the answers and I'd like to ask them a few very angry questions.

The key to this query is the term "global." This article from the Washington Post is quite interesting and informative on the subject. Remember the recent Winter Olympics? While we have experienced an unusually cold winter, we are only about 2% of the global community and much of the rest of the world has had an equally unusually warm one.

So what? Global warming implies the entire world climate is changing. The so called experts say both ice caps are melting at the same time so that takes care of the 2% argument.

We would love to go (somewhere), but right now the temps (& weather) are all over the board, nearly 80 on Saturday but in the 40's & rain on Sunday, sunny today, but 32, calling for rain/snow tomorrow.
We're going to the other side of the Blue Ridge Parkway on Apr 16th, keeping our fingers crossed that the weather will co-operate. :R

Sounds like you have excuses for not going out.
The only weather forecast that will make me think is freezing rain.
We get out and enjoy, we are on track to be out at least one weekend a month.
I have towed home in the snow, and then towed to the coast in snow.

We also like Brookings. Have stayed at the same CG including the no hookup sites along the river. What seafood is in season? We bought it right off of the boats.
