For the last two-and-a-half years we have made every effort to provide 24/7 service, but we have leaned that we are not as young as we used to be and the lack of sleep is much more important than it used to be.

That's another service we provide that we weren't going to: travel information.

Half the people in Depoe Bay are retired people on fixed incomes. They don't make lot of money - they don't have a lot of money - and we're in the same boat.

We have reservations a year in advance. For those purposes we rent three vans to handle our traffic, 15-passenger - whatever we can get.
