The Damron Men’s Travel Guide is exactly 800 pages of dense information. It covers the same geographic regions as the lesbian edition but includes a bit more advertising and seems openly geared to reporting a bit more informa tion on where to meet men, including cruisy areas in most towns and cities. Its Portland list ing seems current, reflecting openings and clos ings of local businesses. Damron.com is also available for online assistance. Both the Internet site and the books are very up-to-date. Catch the wave P erhaps the lure of the ocean is calling you. If you find yourself anywhere near Yachats on the central Oregon coast, consider a stay at the lesbian-owned See Vue Motel. Operated by Renee LaChance, Pride shows one of the founders of Just Out, this spot is located on one of the most spectacular sections of the coast just below Cape Perpetua and on the edge of the Suislaw National Forest. All rooms at the See Vue have ocean views and are set on a grassy bluff where the mountains meet the sea. Some rooms have a fireplace and/or kitchen, and this place is definitely Fido-friendly. With plenty of rooms to choose from, each one has been decorated with unique charm and has its own personality. Some reflect Native American influences; others are outfitted for cowgirls or cowboys. W ith no phones or televisions to distract you, this is truly a getaway from the real world. The town of Yachats offers plenty of dining choices as well as a nifty bakery, and great hik ing opportunities abound in this area.

If you’re among them, head north for a change, and check out two gay-owned destinations. Wayne Fancher and Dan Hickey have been running A nthony’s C ab ins and RV Park in Long Beach for six of their 31 years together. (Maybe they should offer relation ship seminars!) The seven cabins are clean and comfortable, and all have kitchens. If Winnebagoing is more your style, you can drop anchor at one of the 25 full RV hookups. Or you can rent one of the on-site RVs and eliminate having to maneuver one at all. The park features picnic tables, restrooms and shower facilities for campers, a Laundromat and nearby access to 26 miles of wide sandy beaches. You won’t run out of things to do: hiking, biking, horseback rid ing, golfing, fishing, bird watching, kite flying, antique hunting and exploring old forts and lighthouses. During the off season, the beach is open for driving— which, depending on your outlook, is either a good thing or a bad thing. Their toll-free number is 888-787-2754, or look them up at the Internet site www.anthonyshomecourt.com. A longing fo r tne sea S hakti Cove Cottages are snuggled into a green oasis just over the hill from the beach in O cean Park.
