Summertime

Continued south on the coast and saw more incredible scenery. This is different from the east coast shoreline as the road is up on cliffs and the beaches are below. We stopped at every view point and saw lots of rocks and beaches. The road moved inland for a while and we were in dairy farm country. The town of Tillamook is famous for its dairy cooperative and they have a large factory where you can see cheese being made and buy delicious ice cream. We hadn't had lunch yet so we chose to have vanilla shakes as brunch. Very delicious!

More beautiful scenery and we stopped for lunch in Lincoln City and finally had some good chowder. Continued to Newport where we plan to spend two nights. We're staying at the City of Newport Marina and RV Park and it is nice. We opted to stay in and relax all night and did take a walk along the marina where we saw a large seal.
