We only drove up 101 to Florence, then cut over to I5. Remember, I was
tracking an e-mail and newsgroup server with a balky laptop, so went through
Santa Rosa over to Bodega Bay after going through the Napa Valley. We then
went up the coast until I got tired of driving the twisty, slow highway. I
don't really remember, but my trusty map sjhows we spent the night in Salem,
OR.

Neal,
I know Gold Beach. I'm not sure it is the prettiest beach in Oregon,
(though I love all coastal towns) and it's a long trip to "the valley" to
a larger town (Grants Pass, Medford, Ashland). Brookings, just a little
south of Gold Beach is called "the banana belt" of Oregon in that it
typically has good (better) weather than the other coastal towns. Have you
ever lived in a coastal town? I'm not sure you would tolerate the weather
on the Oregon coast, especially having come from hot and dry (assuming you
like the climate in NM). Maybe you saw the Oregon coast during the summer,
and it was good weather. When it's beautiful, it's BEAUTIFUL, but most of
the year it is rainy, cold, and foggy. That's why I've often told Judity
that she should move to the Oregon coast. She would love the weather.
Also, the shopping is.... "small town". Very small town. A few of the mid
and northern coastal towns have grown tremendously over the last 10 years
and have most chain stores, but Gold Beach... I'm not sure. Haven't been
there for a few years.
Is there a particular reason you picked Gold Beach? Or the Oregon coast in
general?

Thinking about moving to a lower altitude.
Thanks,
