Grayland Beach State Park

Had a great time at the ocean this weekend. Dave had driven the RV to work so I met him about 5:45. We were plugged in by 8:00. This is a very popular park. We were surpised to see the campround full sign when we pulled in. Then we found out it's prime clam digging season. The sites here are large and level. Our little C seemed a tad lonely in the pull-through site.

We woke up to wind and rain. Lots of it. After lunch we unplugged and drove a few blocks to a large antique store. Seemed like everybody else around had the same idea. Dave found a toy red baron plane and I found a couple of 70's turqouise plastic platters.

The sun finally came out later in the afternoon. We went for a walk via our private trail to the beach. Then we relaxed by the fire. Don't worry... no trees were harmed in our campfire. Only coffee grounds. We like to bring the Java logs (from Safeway) along for camping. They always start right up and are non-toxic. Plus, they are bug-free.

Sunday morning we went for a bike ride. Sadly, Dave's bike seat cover had falled off in the wind/rain storm. Which means his seat had soaked up a lot of water. So Dave temporarily modified the bike seat (with a hand-towel and rubber bands) to stay dry. We rode across the highway to some back roads. Soon we were riding in between cranberry fields. Nice flat quiet roads but the wind made for a challenging ride. We really enjoyed it.
After the ride we had time for a quick cup of coffee and another look at the view before we left for Westport.
Lucky for us the Westport RV parking lot was right next to the Shipwreck Motel. Can't pass up a photo op like this one!
