Our journey up the coast of Oregon - First stop Florence

We have entered Oregon and are traveling north up the coast... Oregon & Alaska are the only 2 states we have not visited in our many years of travel but now we can add Oregon to our list. What a beautiful state it is with all the lush forest and beautiful coastline. It is just loaded with wonderful State Parks, Light Houses and history. Sadly we managed to get here during rainy season... How long does it last? I don't know... But that is OK we are adventurist and will go out to see the sights we can even in the rain. So here are some photos of our journey to our first stop at Florence, Oregon. We stayed at South Jetty Thousand Trails RV Park which is a membership park. We were tucked deep into the woods and had NO Internet or AT&T phone. A very rustic park with the usual club house, pools and trails to walk.
I never got to take pictures of this park.

lush forest and cute little towns

miles & miles of wonderful coast

As we traveled up the road we saw beautiful beautiful beaches and shorelines

Big rocks formations and lots of driftwood

Bridges that had so much character and style

they were just breathtaking


more great rock formations around every corner


and little seaside towns

We are seeing so many wonderful places and things that I will be sharing with you very soon... I am kind of behind in my post updates due to lousy Internet service. Hopefully we'll have it for a while now.

Soledad Canyon Thousand Trails Park Review

Today we hit the road and are on our way to San Fransisco... via Tulare, Ca. We are hoping that all of us are healthy enough to go into the city and check it out. The 4 days flew by even though we did nothing but go to Wally World!
The park is located at
Soledad Canyon - Thousand Trails
4700 Crown Valley Rd.
Acton, California 93510
We arrived at Soledad Canyon Thousand Trails Park on last Wednesday around 1:30 pm. It was a very hard drive because of high winds & rough roads so it was a welcomed site when we came around the bend and saw the park. We have 50 amp, W/S but the site was really unlevel, so we had to use boards under our wheels & jacks. Also a HUGE issue with electric, alot in the park that does not work.



Secluded in the high desert country, this 266-acre oasis is surrounded by lush greenery, majestic scenery and towering cottonwood trees. The temperate climate offers year-round fun for all ages. While we were here the days were very comfortable at about 75' & the nights a little chilly around 45'.

We were able to get Satellite TV, both Verizon and AT&T phone service and Internet service with our cards. This is because we are on the upper level of park.

Campsites on the upper level where we are parked.

It is located only one hour from Los Angeles and for us the perfect stop to visit various Hollywood attractions and major theme parks. We didn't get to go into LA because not only did Ralph get sick with a bad cold but my friend Chris was having some issues with her sinus too. The pollen count is so high here and with the winds blowing it around it is very hard on anyone with allergies.

Campsites in the level just below where we are parked.

This park offers a lot of amenities: They have an Adult Center, Ball Field, Basketball Court, Country Store, Family Center, Horseshoe Pits, Laundry Facilities, Mini-Golf, Playgrounds, Shuffleboard, Spa, Swimming pool.

We are surrounded by National Forest...NW is Los Padres NF & to the SSW is Angeles NF
