Bill has wanted to follow the Lewis and Clark expedition so we are staying at Fort Stevens, almost to the Washington border.
On the way up the coast, we stopped at the Quilt and Textile Center and Tillamook Cheese Factory.
The quilt and textile center is a wonderful and diverse place for a group of artisans to show their beautiful products. Enjoyed looking at the beautiful art work.
Look at all those New York beauties, Linda Zubler. . Think we’ll get ours finished?
Resident weaver.
Then on to Tillimook Cheese and Creamery. Had to try some of both. Bill had salted caramel butter pecan and I had s’mores! Yum.
We got to the Ft Stevens campground around 3 and decided to go for a short beach hike to where the Pacicic ocean meets the Columbia river. Lenny was very happy. Guess we are going to need to build a beach or at least a sand box. He went right for the water and started digging in the sand.
The campground we are staying at was the primary military defense installation at the mouth of the Columbia River. The fort serves for 84 years beginning with the Civil War and closing at the end of World War II.
Back to the campground for a fire and favorite meal - pizza mountain pies.
Night all
Ice cream and pizza mountain pies. Yumm! That textile place looks so interesting.
