As you can see it too white for us in Janesville Ca
We got about 8 inches of snow the other day, which put a kabosh to any traveling with our motor home.
Our main plan at this time is to leave Tuesday, March 10. According to the weather reports it's supposed to be clear and dry. Ha! I have been told this before and know from experience, you can't always believe the weather man. They're only right with their forecast about 35 % when we're talking 5 days off.
We have reservations in Coquille again at the Rivers Edge RV Park. Last year we stayed there for one month and it was great. The name tells it all and I mean you're right on the rivers edge of the Coquille river.
Although I tried fishing last year on the river it was not productive, at least not for me. They were catching a lot of Steelhead before we arrived, but the water was still a little too high at the time. I don't think I will get a fishing license this time since I really did not catch much last year in March. I will however, get an ocean shell fish license and do some clamming. Crabbing is not good at this time either, so I will avoid crabbing unless I hear different. We get a Fish and Wild Life report for Oregon via computer once a week with up dates. Great service they provide for the fisherman and hunter. If you would like to receive a weekly report just click on the link below and sign up.

One of our other plans is to get new tires put on our RV since the current tires we have are all cracking around the edges of the tire. Makes you mad when you only really have about 5000 miles on these tires. One of those things they talk about when you get tires specifically on a new Motor home, they're not real high quality. Although they were a Name brand, Michelin. Its one of those cases that the motor home is a 2006 model and the tires were a lot older than the motor home. I believe they put the cheapest tires on them and they're out dated to begin with. Example; they could be on a vehicle that is a 2006 model, but the tire may have been made in 2004 or earlier.
This problem does not specifically apply to motor home, but any new tire you may buy. Check the manufacturing date always
Buyer beware as they say, if you,re buying new tires make sure they,re indeed new. Just because they are sold as new they may be several years old. Check the date when they were manufactured. Usually the date can be
found on the back side of the tire. Example :I ordered 6 new tires for our motor home from Les Schwab in Coquille Oregon. I figured since we are going up to Oregon, why not get my tires up there. When I checked with Les Schwab in Susanville their cost was nearly $200 more than I can get them in Oregon.
Funny when I checked in Reno Nevada from the same company they were priced about $50.00 cheaper than Susanville.
Surely this must tell you something.
In this day and age always shop around first no matter what you are buying.
