The Pacific Ocean!
August 27, 2017
It only took 9 weeks and 5,899 miles, but we finally made it to the other ocean! We are at Nehalem Bay State Park Campground in Manzanita, Oregon. Our campsite is on one side of the huge sand dunes and then we have 5 miles of sandy beach.
We hear the surf all day and all night- very sweet. Reminds us of home! The ocean is about 55 degrees, a bit too cold for swimming.
Heading south to a couple other coastal campgrounds, then the plan is open- huge wild fires further down the coast and at Crater Lake are encouraging us to head elswhere.
Our Home Is Here...Today... 
Congratulations! What an accomplishment! The Atlantic ocean is about 60 degrees. We may go to either Hampton or Gloucester on Monday as the weather should be around 80 degrees, it may be the last time this year. We went to the park at Rye beach last week. A beautiful day and the park had paved trails. Your brother had a good day. 😎 This weekend we are going to the Hopkinton fair to see the demolition derby and eat fried dough which Phillip still eats wholeheartedly.
So your trip is going as planned. Glad that all is well with the three of you. Take care.
