Our trip down the coast

Michael finally had his second "Kelly" day (a scheduled day off) since starting work with TVF&R so we took a little trip down part of the Oregon Coast. Since we live in Albany, we usually just go through Corvallis and out to Newport when we want to go to the beach. This time we decided to head North to Cannon Beach/Seaside area. We took our travel trailer and decided rain or shine we were going to make the best of it. We stayed at an RV park in Cannon Beach the first two nights. It rained pretty good on us the first day so we didn't do much of "camping", instead, we spent some time in the pool and hot tub at the RV Park. The kids loved it! I sure hope Makayla doesn't start to think that all campgrounds have a pool.

When we got up the next day it was a pretty nice day so we headed to the beach. We spent some time in Seaside looking through the shops and had some lunch and then we went and played on the beach. Zoey (the dog) played more than anyone, Kaden and I took a nap in the sun, and Michael barried Makayla in the sand. All in all it was a nice day at the beach.

We traveled down 101 to just outside of Tillamook, to Cape Lookout. We had never been there before and really enjoyed it. We would have had more fun if the weather had been different, it pretty much rained the whole time we were there. We had a couple breaks from the showers which allowed us to have a campfire and take a walk on the beach but that was about it. We spent some time in the car checking out other areas we had not visited before, and took a trip to the Tillamook Cheese Factory and got some ice cream.
