Outing #8 (Newport)
What a crazy end to summer and start of fall - too busy to go camping until this weekend! Took advantage of the predicted break in the rain and brought the trailer up to South Beach State Park. We are pretty familiar with this park by now. However, after scoping out Beverly Beach State Park just north of Newport we think we’ve found a new favorite coastal campground! Particularly after having to listen to some EXTREMELY loud campers near us at South Beach!
Made a day trip on Saturday up to Lincoln City after spending the morning exploring historic Nye Beach in Newport (AND found a new favorite fish & chips place there - The Chowder Bowl). Pat shopped while I hunted geocaches. While I was out I spotted an all-black T@B trailer heading south! Cool looking!
Stopped in Florence on the way home Sunday - ate at Moe’s and wandered around Old Town.
