Nic and I took K and CC to stay in a yurt for the weekend a couple years back. We were attacked by raccoons that trip and found the best fish-n-chips in the world, Bowfingers.
So, we took off for the weekend and stayed again at Fort Stevens, this time in our sweet pea green Prowler trailer *minus heat* and it turned out to be a cold one, but my resourceful man bought us some space heaters for the next night! We hit the Astoria Column, and Nic made ALL of us walk all the way up. You don't see Kennedy in the family pix, because she was clinging to the side. I'm very proud of her, I didn't go last time.
We hit Bowfingers, and it still claims the title of "Best fish-n-chips in the world". Found a consignment shop and cleaned them out of all their size 9 and 10 little girl shoes. The trolley that runs along the coast wasn't operating, it's seasonal, but we walked the piers and went to a beautiful drive to Long Beach, Wa. Found some shells, spun some cookies, and collected drift wood for our tin foil dinners.
Lovely trip. Lovely family. Nice to be just a six pack of crazies (notice the All-American Freeze Out pic.)
