Cape Disappointment State Park

June 23-26, 2015
Cape Disappointment, Long Beach

Who: Dianne, Joshua, Nora, Conner, Nora

Sites are big and well spaced.  Campground is huge, took 5 minutes to walk to the beach.  

There are two lighthouses, but we weren't able to visit either as the parking would not accomodate motorhomes and they were several miles away. 

The kids were at the beach for hours and hours each day.  Luckily the shower meters were broken as they all took several, free, hot showers a day.  Note to self: put sunscreen on the redhead.  Whoops!

We drove down to Astoria, Oregon one day and visited the Astoria Column and the Goonies house.

Kalaloch

June 12-14, 2015
Kalaloch, Olympic Peninsula, Site #A52

Who: Eric, Dianne, Joshua, Nora

Took Dad's new motorhome. 

The campground is great.  Most of the sites are well separated and private.  Campground is right on the beach which has wonderful sand.  Weather was beautiful and sunny.  The breeze off the ocean made it quite cool. 

We took my Dad's "new" motorhome.  It seems every quirk our old motorhome didn't have, this one does.  The water tank registered as full so I didn't top off the tanks before we left.  We ran out of water right after breakfast.  We tried to refill the tank for a good 20 minutes, but the pipe is either blocked or the switch is broken.  Luckily, we had a water jug to use for hand and dish washing.
