Florence, OR. has been on my list of destinations to visit and after some virtual map research the historic old town of Florence has several restaurants and shops that are a short walk (20-30 minute) from the airport.
6S2 is greater than 50 miles from my home airport so it counts for some cross country time and is within range to classify this destination as a $100 hamburger spot. We had been trying to go Florence for a flying club outing for several months but couldn't get a break in the weather for several Saturdays. Finally had a nice June VFR day on the Oregon Coast and flew down with four airplanes. The walk to the water front took a leisurely 25 minutes and we grabbed some outside tables at
Mari's Kitchen for some breakfast. Also, turns out there is a quaint coffee shop called
River Roasters on the main drag, so now Florence is also on my $100 latte destination list.
