We drove our coach just 68 miles, about one hour of driving, from Florence, Oregon to Eugene, Oregon.
We had an appointment at Oregon Motorcoach Center for some servicing, and had originally planned to drive from the coast to Eugene, but decided to make it easier on ourselves by doing that drive the day before, staying one night in a county park. Very fortunate that we were able to snag a reservation at the last minute.

A fuel stop:
The 150-gallon diesel tank was only quarter full; we usually don’t let it get below half, but there weren’t a lot of suitable fuel options on the coast:
100 gallons of fuel, so I guess it was actually a third full:
