Woodsterman Takes A Vacation ... Part 3

Hi again, we finally made it to the coast. This we have

done for Sue since we bought our first motorhome in 1997.

She loves to comb the beaches looking for shells, and

it's my job to make her happy. I love the beach too. I

practically grew up at one in southern California. I was

one of those die-hard surfers for 20 years from age 13

to 33 when we moved to the mountains. 

We are at a KOA across the road from a state park called

Fort Stevens. The park is where the Columbia River hits

the Pacific. We stay at the KOA for the hook-ups. Those

of you not knowing what that is, they are water, waste,

electric, cable TV, and now Wi-Fi. Some say, "That's not

camping." Damn straight it's not ... those days are over.

Below are photos of our 3.5 mile round trip walk to the

beach. 

It just started raining and thank goodness for

motorhomes. We head south to Tillamook to see how

cheese is made. I hope this posts OK ... internet is kind

of slow here.

The paved "trail" to the beach.

The people of Oregon know how

to do it.

I lost my keys in there, could you help me find them?

Ah, the ocean, what this trip is about ...

An old ship wreak of the "Peter Iredale".

The "trail" back.

It won't be long for cocktails now ....

Don't forget to read "Wal-Mart".
