It is Friday morning and we are headed out for another day of Oregon Coast vistas. The quasi-destination for the day was Brookings, Oregon. We figured that we needed to be settled in early due to the higher volume of weekend campers. The coastline scenes continued to be beauty beyond belief with exception of a US 101 stretch that veered inland, still a peaceful relaxing drive but less scenic than the ocean. We arrived in Brookings at 3:30 (sunshine and blue skies and started looking for a place to stay. Our hope was to find a place that had showers ( by now we need one), maybe WiFi, and close by access to a laundry mat. We first checked out some local RV parks but after one look at all the road slugs parked on concrete we decided to head back to Harris Beach State Park. This turned out to be a very good choice because the park is beautiful, has hot showers (wahoo, they felt good), has WiFi which we are told works if you try it by the park building, and best of all has an incredible beach area complete with sea stacks and tide pools. We spent the evening getting our clothes washed, enjoying the campfire and making some phone calls. Dinner was “interesting” – good salad with homemade vinaigret, really bad Tasty Bite brand Pad Thai (tasted like spicy spaghetti O’s), and leftover homemade apple sauce (got rid of the icky Pad Thai taste).
