Day 102. Armitage Cnty Park, Eugene, OR



This is a pretty and spacious park with full hookups and wifi. We’re here for 2 nights so Trish can get fitted for a custom folding bike, one that will fit in the back of the pickup with the tonneau cover over it. Hauling bikes around on the back of an RV beats them up pretty bad so we don’t do that anymore.

Meanwhile, a coast retrospective….. A couple miles south of Coos Bay, one drives by a substantial home with a nicely fenced yard and security gate. This is the home of world famous (?) Bonk and Bonk Investigations. When we drove by this place last summer, I did a double take and burst out laughing. We’re talking major incongruity here. Is Coos Bay such a hotbed of intrigue, vice and assorted misdeeds that it requires 2 - count em - not l but 2, Bonks? Mercy me! Who’d have guessed? Double Bonking right here in little old Coos Bay! Anyway, it appears that the Bonks are doing well and I wish them continued success.

The Bonks inspired a couple of limericks.
.
Call Bonk and Bonk, night or day
The investigators in Coos Bay
They’ll ferret out vice
Mysteries solved in a trice.
Bonking everyone that gets in their way.
.
In Coos Bay, it’s Bonk and Bonk
Investigations: just pull up and honk.
How a friend lost his life,
Cheating husband or wife,
That body stuffed in your car’s tronk.

  1. There once was a PI at the shore
    Who languished for lack of l'amour,
    But he searched far and wide
    Till he found him a bride
    Now "Bonk & Bonk's" hung on their door.
