We are learning that when in the Pacific Northwest we cannot let the rain stop us from seeing the sites.
We hiked down to Agate Beach in Patrick’s Point State Park in light rain. It was gnarly.
Treasures from the beach:
Elk in Redwoods National Park:
Road to Gold Bluffs Beach. No rv’s allowed
We didn’t stay here but this is Gold Bluffs Beach. Would be a great place to stay if you were tenting it or in a truck/camper
Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park We didn’t stay here because we wanted hook ups during rain storm but this was one of the most beautiful campgrounds we’ve seen. And we’ve seen a few.
Finally, one of the places I really wanted to go was Fern Canyon. The gate was closed due to rains which meant hiking a mile along the road if you wanted to go there. The rain stopped in the afternoon so we went for it. The hike doesn’t usually involve hiking through so much water but because of the recent rain, the creek was higher. It didn’t stop us.
Not going any further.
- This is such a beautiful area! We highly recommend a visit if you’ve never been here.
You are definitely in the Northwest with all that miss on the trees! Pretty area!
Moss, auto correct!
Beautiful photos! Lovely scenery! Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous! How was the fishing John?
He only did a few casts. Not really serious about it.
Great photos. Looks like a wonderful adventure
From Scott and Diana
Diane, you look perfectly equipped in those rain boots. What fun!
did papa catch any fish?
No, Selah. But he didn’t try very hard. When he catches a fish we will send you a picture! Love, Mimi
did you see sequoias? did you go on the pier?
i got a triple at baseball and got to be catcher.
I saw your triple on a video! Good job! Catcher is a tough job. Way to go! Grandma really liked the triple too. Love, Papa.
We didn’t see sequoias but we saw Redwoods. I learned how they are different. Redwoods grow taller than Sequoias but Sequoias are larger around. We haven’t been to a pier. Love, grandma.
hi mimi and papa. have fun.
We love you, Mav! Mimi and Papa.
Are you having a good trip? What is your favorite trip? I wish you could come to my baseball games.
We are having a great trip! Papa says his favorite place is the Oregon Coast Sand dunes. You would love these dunes. I will post pictures soon. We both miss being at your games so much! We both watch every video your mom and dad sends us. Love, Grandma and Grandpa
