Day 5 - Around Florence, Oregon

Both of us were pretty tired, so nether felt guilty about sleeping in till 7:20. Since this was a no travel day, we decided to have a good sit-down breakfast and the Brown Hen served it up.

Next up was a walk around Old Town Florence. Kitchen Klutter, a regular shopping stop, offered nothing for Chef Barb, while River Roasters filled in for Starbucks with a very good mocha. Rain finally drove us back to the car for an hour or so and then it was back to Old Town.

Lunch time found us wanting to save room for a special dinner, so we split a hot dog, bag of chips and a beer. Not exactly the fish we were looking for. After lunch we checked out some of the fishing boats.

Quick trips to Bi-Mart and Fred Mayer and then back to our room for a couple of hours.

Five o'clock found us at the Bridgewater, our favorite place in Florence, for dinner. Barb had Cioppino while I had a half dozen oysters on the half shell and Clam Linguine. Both meals were excellent. Now back at the motel trying to remember today.

Tomorrow we are off to Long Beach, WA for a four-day visit with son Jeff.
