Thursday, 28NOV13- Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!


We enjoyed waking up at Harris Beach State Park.  The front of the park faces the ocean.  There is a long hiking trail that leads down to the water.  The coast has a lot of huge rocks that stick up out of the water.  The way the waves hit the rocks makes for a beautiful coastline with water and foam spraying up into the air.

We relaxed around the camper in the morning before heading into town.  We were set on finding a restaurant to eat Thanksgiving dinner in… but we ended up stopping at a Fred Meyer instead.  They had a ton of stuff in there!  We got a few odds and ends there to make for a great thanksgiving dinner back in our camper.  We also did some other shopping while we were there as well.  Those stores are great- if you haven’t had the chance to go in one of them before.  I picked up a few odds and ends to fix some different things.  We even picked up a nice set of LED Christmas lights to light up our awning at night at the campsite. 


Willie who??



After our expensive adventure to Fred Meyer, we drove down the coast and looked at the Redwoods with the kids!  It was great.  I’ll tell you, pictures don’t really show the enormity of those trees.  They are beautiful!  It is difficult to imagine that these trees were alive when Christ walked the earth… and they are still here.  It is amazing to walk around in the forest of these trees. 


After our trip south, we headed back to the camper and cooked up a Thanksgiving dinner.  Traci does a great job cooking with all kinds of different means at the campsites.  Dinner was great!  We built a small campfire outside.  I sat down and took a few snapshots of our setup there..  What a great day… we found paradise..  great fun!
