Part 1 (7:30am)
Mother Nature has decided to wake me up early again with sun coming through the sun roof, but I'm not going to let it get the best of me today. I got up and started breakfast and got the kids eating immediately!
Part 2 (8:30am)
The sun is still out, we are heading to the beach to have fun and since it is only a minute and a half away, we should beat any rain that should try to sneak in on us.
Part 3 (10:00am)
It's still sunny, so we are going to have some fun today! We are now heading to Netul Landing. (The place where Lewis & Clark landed when they arrived here at Fort Clatsop, the Netul river is now known as the Lewis and Clark River)
Part 4 (11:00am)
We decided to head back to Fort Clatsop today, because the kids had completed Part of 3 of their Junior Ranger badges and needed the stamp from Fort Clatsop and their badge from there as well. They taught my daughter how to start a fire with Flint and Steel. (We could be in trouble now.)
Part 5 (11:30am)
Lunch - the old fall back of BBQ Hotdogs!
Part 6 (12:15pm)
I haven't told the kids, but we are heading up to Washington to hit all the spots where Lewis and Clark were before they crossed the Columbia and built Fort Clatsop. The first stop was Dismal Nitch. This was the spot where Lewis and Clark's journey had to stop for 6 days because of a winter storm and they couldn't budge. They thought they were going to die less than 12 miles from the Pacific Ocean and their true destination.
The next stop was Cape Disappointment, learned a lot there and ended up seeing some more eagles, that was pretty cool.
Part 7 (6:00)
I'm letting my nine year old be the fire starter and dinner cooker tonight, let us see how she does with BBQ burgers. I ended up taking over on the burger cooking!
Part 8 (7:30)
We played games the rest of the night and cooked a few smores and really look forward to having some fun on our last day, doing whatever the day may bring.
Wait, there is more... 10pm we got a knock (OK, scratch) on the door and this is who we had as visitors to our yurt stopping by to say hello.
Looking out our yurt window at 10pm, but who do we see
There is three of us, our buddy knocked, if we beg, will that help?
How about if we look sad and give you puppy dog eyes?
