Did you know you can't pump your own gas in Oregon? It's so weird! The attendant said that only Oregon and New Jersey still have laws on the books that won't let you pump gas. Oh and he didn't have to have any training for his job. Basically he just had to grow up in another state so he knew how to pump gas! Geez.
But Oregon is amazing!! My favorite so far.
We checked out of our hotel in Astoria, OR (The neatest little town!) and headed south along Highway 101. Stops at Cannon Beach, Lincoln City, and many others until we stopped for the night in Newport. Highway 101 runs not only along the ocean, but through several small towns. We bought a tour book that has come in very helpful to make sure we don't miss any of the sights.
We're booking our hotels when we stop for lunch and it seems there are plenty of options available for reasonable prices. For instance, tonight we're staying in a condo on the beach (ON THE BEACH!!) for around $130. Not bad when we split it two ways.

I hope you can zoom in on this...so much life on this rock.
Tillamook cheese factory.
Not that much to see, but a good place to stretch your legs.
Stop Along Otter Crest Loop
I just wish the pictures could do this place justice.
You need to go to Oregon and see it!!
Ok, so you can't see them...but there were thousands of seals in the water.

Time to plan for tomorrow!
My cousin, Riki, lives in Astoria! The pic of Aunt Mindy and the ocean is one that needs to be printed. Love it!
