Pacific City

We just returned from a four day trip to the coast. Kenin's parents and Jonne arrived last Saturday, and the boys left for scout camp on Monday. Monday afternoon, we left for Pacific City with Ken's family and Molly. We rented a beach house in Pacific City for the week - and it was so much fun! Here is a picture of the house.

The house had four bikes for us to use and I had forgotten how fun it is to ride a bike. There were a lot of bike paths around the "village" and we had fun riding around the neighborhood looking at all of the beach houses.
The weather was beautiful the entire week. We didn't even have "misty" mornings. We had to keep our bedroom windows open to get a nice breeze, and yet it was cool enough for us to wear sweatshirts. Perfect beach weather.


We traveled to Tillamook one day to visit the Tillamook Cheese Factory. On the way we stopped at the Lighthouse in Tillamook. It was fun to go inside for a tour.








On Wednesday we went to Lincoln City and after eating lunch at Mo's, we went to the glass blowing studio where Jonne and Molly both made incredible floats.



Every night we would walk to the beach to view the most perfect sunset. The entire sky would turn the most beautiful shades of pink and yellow. It would cast an amazing light on everyone. So peaceful and serene. What a perfect way to end each of our days. I am anxious to go back soon.
