We're Glowing with Excitement!


Our Next RV Camping Trip is Reserved!
A few days ago it occurred to me that I should visit the Oregon State Park website to see if there was anything new that we should be aware of. After all, last year many important changes seriously affected our trip. Just as we were about to start making reservations, Covid hit and the entire park system was completely shut down. The only nice thing about that was that we didn't waste umpteen hours making reservations only to have them all cancelled on us--something that outraged and disappointed countless campers who'd made plans already.
For months we waited and simultaneously worried about this new virus quickly taking over the world. We'd fallen into a stupor of perpetual stand-by when Steve's sister shook our shoulders in June. She was camping in California and we should see if they'd green-lit camping again in Oregon. To our surprise, reservations had just opened up again and suddenly we had a "get out of jail free" card handed to us! Hooray! We ended up camping for months of wonderful trips, having countless fantastic adventures and avoiding Covid in the process.
Reservation Windows...What a Pain!
The reservation process started out with just being able to reserve up to two weeks in advance…what a royal bother that was! We were always unsure what the future would hold--would we be able to find a place to stay? There was a lot of stress and difficult searches. We ended up needing to stay at private RV "resorts" (glorified parking lots) a couple of times, but for the most part we got really lucky! After about a month or so, the reservation window was opened up to a full month ahead and that was a total relief! It was so much easier to find places to stay and knowing where we'd be for a month was fantastic! After we got home for the season, I vowed to keep an eye on Oregon's park site to make sure we were aware of anything important--and it's paid off! :D
2021 Camping Reservations are Open!
As it turned out, when I visited a few days ago, they had--just that day--announced that the reservation window would be opened up to a SIX-MONTH window! Starting in TWO DAYS! Which was…YESTERDAY!
So our day was spent figuring out when we'd start our trip and where we'd be afterwards. We hammered out our first excursion, which ends up being nearly three months of camping! What a relief to have it all planned out so far in advance! We're both so excited and looking forward to new adventures on the horizon!
Today's Pictures
What better than to share an image of glowing backlit vetch leaves and dreamy bokeh?! This is the sort of thing that makes my heart go BOOM! Perfect for how I'm feeling right now! :) And just to make it more clear, I've included a very wide panorama of one of our glorious sunrises! ENJOY!
Please stay safe and good luck for getting your vaccine soon!!

Happy and healthy weekend.
I love the backlighting and the pastel colors..
La note est d'une beauté rayonnante.
Bon Weekend.
Great to see your pictures again, and a rather late ‘Happy New Year’!
This is a very nice picture, which I really like. Those upstanding leaves are so cute!!
Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
Peter
Thank you for posting in the group

The picture is absolutely gorgeous, I do love vetch, especially when you rub your finger down its spine and all the leaves close up!!! The bokeh look is amazing too. Then we come to the panorama of a sunrise - stunning doesn't even cover it. It's really beautiful sweetie. Please stay safe and have a nice weekend.
