Florence Bound!

Awhile back I was reading the AAA magazine and it had an article on whale watching in Florence.

It got me all excited and wanting to plan a trip in our camper out there. Next thing I new I had it all planned out and couldn't wait to go. Then we got that wonderful opportunity to move into another home and things got super busy and crazy really fast. I wasn't sure if we would make it on this trip or not. We shortened it by a day but still headed out and had a good time. It was a nice break from all the house stuff.

First on our list was a giant dune buggy ride!

All buckled in and ready to go boys!

It was perfect weather for a nice ride on the Oregon dunes.

Found our camp spot.

What a mucky muddy mess. I didn't enjoy our campsite much but the boys sure loved running all around in the bushes and such.

King of hill

Phew, he made it up!

Loving the beach!

Neat wood forts made from drift wood everywhere.

Jacob was collecting every shell he could find whether it was a broken tiny piece or not.

Sea Lion Cave! This was pretty cool! It was tricky with pictures since no flash is allowed, but I thought this actually turned out pretty good.

There was between 150 - 200 Sea Lions in there that day. It was pretty neat watching and listening to them. You could see them all over swimming in the ocean as well.

Far on that little cliff over there you can see the Heceta lighthouse.

Headed home and all tuckered out!

 It was short and sweet and of course Jacob did not want to go home. We had a good time and got to use the camper again!
