COOS BAY!!!! We are finally here!

We made it! It was a good day today. Great scenery always helps. The riding was good, we did a lighthouse tour, and stopped at the Oregon Aquarium, which shouldn't be missed for any reason. It is good to be here with the people we traveled so far to see. Once the bikes were unpacked, we proceeded to get some "provisions" which mainly meant some of Colorados most advertised adult light beverage.

This is the Yaquina Head lighthouse. You can actually tour the inside of this one, and see the lense and light. Glad we waited in line to see it.

Here Melanie is checking out some fish from the inside of an aquarium.

This is the Heceta Head lighthouse, in the Newport area. We have a thing for lighthouses!
Here are some of the locals sunning themselves. Notice the wave on the lower left sneeking up on these guys.

Here they are after the quick shower. A couple of them look as surprised as we would be!


Today was the final leg getting to the 2008 Oregon Trail International - Vulcan Riders and Owners Club - Wolfmans Wandering Rally. Long name for lots of folks getting together to have a great time with great people. Today was 222 miles, bringing our total up to 1963 miles so far.
