Cottage Grove OR

Didn’t drive too far today and got the last site at Village Green Resort and Gardens, recommended by Jake.  It’s main function is motel accommodation with a bar and restaurant, and they hold weddings here as they have 14 acres of beautiful grounds.  They also have a small RV lot at one end of the property, plus they have a pool – the first swim we have had (or needed) for a few weeks.  There were only half a dozen sun loungers and they were all taken so we had our dip and came back to the RV to sit outside in the shade.  Wasn’t long before the eyes closed  zzzz….

The Eugene area is having an unheard of heat wave - the hottest temperatures on record and well into the 100’s.  It is supposed to recede by Sunday and get back to their more temperate  climate.
The new towel rails are modified and  fitted without any drama – measure twice, drill once!  But it’s too hot to do anything else.

Our very friendly, gregarious and voluptuous neighbour, Cynthia, is outside in her tiny lime green bikini bathing her 7 dachshund puppies in a kid’s paddling pool.  She has three other dogs, (the grandfather, mother and one of another type) all in a 32 motorhome!!  She is entering the adult dogs in the “weiner” races in Cottage Grove today and they have costumes!  That’s all I have to say about that.


There is live music in the bar tonight but doesn’t start till 9pm so we give it a miss.  Missed happy hour too.  Had our own though - after all it is Friday here!
