Midway RV Park, Coos Bay, OR, to KOA, Lincoln City, ORLeft Coos Bay at a little after 9 this morning and headed north on the 101.  Drove over that way high bridge just outside of North Bend…pulling the fifth wheel.  I was driving and it didn’t bother me too much.  I drove to Florence and then Mike took over.  After Florence 101 rose to breathtaking heights above the Pacific. Very twisty, turny and a tunnel with a pretty low clearance.  Drove through one cute little coastal town after another.  The KOA we’re staying at is just across the road from Devil’s Lake, which is really pretty big and has nice lake houses dotting the shore.  The KOA here is really nice—each site having shrubs on both sides, affording lots of privacy.  Got here and were set up by 1:00.  Then headed out exploring.  Stopped along the beach and walked for a while.  Pretty cloudy all day.  But it reached 71.  Had dinner at a seafood grill on the beach where the D River empties into the Pacific. It's the shortest river in the world and is the outlet from Devil's Lake.

After Florence, the higher we climbed the denser the fog/marine layer.

The Pacific was churning pretty good.
