This is one of the jet boats.
Just had to take a picture of this guy.
Juju, Harry, Deb and Paul at the O K Corral
What a day we had. So much fun. Deb made reservation for us to ride a jet boat and have a brunch. Let me tell you this is absolute to do when you are here in Medford Or. It was a blast. The appropriate attire a bathing suit. You shall surely get soaking wet. Our driver quite the show-off with 360 turns and then comes to a dead stop as a wall of water creams you. Top speed 100 mph, You are flying across the Rouge River. If you are a fan of roller coaster then this is the ride for you. AWESOME. We had a fantastic brunch at the O K Coral Lodge perched up a hill, just a few short feet from the river. You are sitting on a large redwood log covered porch. The first course awaits for your pleasure champagne, apple cider, coffee, orange juice, and water. Guess what I had to drink!!!! A huge platter of fresh fruit strawberries, grapes, pineapple, kiwi, watermelon and cantaloupe. The sweet nectar of the season best arousing the taste buds. Then the main course {all homemade} biscuits, gravy, sweet breads, western hash browns, crispy thick slice of bacon, sausage links, fluffy scramble eggs with cheddar cheese. Served family styled, do not be bashful it is all you can eat and drink. Our waitress was at our beckon call. If you go away hungry, you are to blame. After a full belly it is back to your boat, where the fun begins
again. I am told they have dinner cruises and sight seeing cruise no matter your choice, you will not be disappointed. I am ready for a do over.
We came home to change to dry clothes and relax before dinner with Deb and Paul. We had Paul's leftover homemade meatballs and spaghetti that we indulge upon our arrival Friday. Monday we get to see a play and afterwards they serve coffee and dessert, bread pudding a chocolate pie, fresh fruit just to name a few. Yes life is good!!!

On our last day in Lincoln City I needed to do a little Christmas shopping {Hmm what am I shopping for !!!!} Well as walked the beach front looking out into the Pacific Harry notice a spray of water. Looking closer it is what we have be waiting to see. A large whale swimming, jumping out of the water then diving back in with his tail fin waving at you. What a beautiful site to see. We stood there for such a time watching in awe. He finally went down deep for feeding and moving on.
Lunch time you can always tell Harry tummy talks to you. We drove down the rode a few miles. Found a place that has steamed crabs. Seafood no need to twist our arms. We ordered our crabs sat at a picnic table and our barbarian side came out. The sweet juice of crabs trailing down our arms, tearing the crabs apart and cracking the shell for the precious meat, dipping in butter and down the hatch. I hope your hungry, cuz we ate till we were plump as a butterball. We have had crayfish boils and shrimp boils, but a crab boil that's good eats.

You are whetting my appetite (literally) for our trip out there. I'll put the park on our list. We did a jet boat in New Zealand. Scared me to death but what a great time. When are you headed home? We are in Colorado,moving on to Santa Fe on Wednesday. Will end up in Burleson for Labor Day.
