Day 100 - June 24, 2008
Can you believe it - we have had the wonderful opportunity to tour this great country of ours for 100 days. As the title of this blog goes - this is truly a Big Adventure.
We started our day with a stop at Jack's Country Store in Ocean Park, WA. This store is known far and wide for its extensive inventory array that covers everythings from a full grocery department featuring fresh local seafood to an extensive hardware selection, RV parts, housewares and sporting goods. This was quite a treat and a walk back in time.
Then it was on for some hiking at Leadbetter Point State Park. I tell you what, I don't know who has more mosquitoes - Washington or Florida.
Then we drove through the delightful little town of Oysterville. It was settled in 1854 and is one of the oldest towns in Washington. The entire community constitutes a historic district!!
Then it was another great seafood lunch in Long Beach.
Next stop was the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center at Cape Disappointment State Park. Then we walked up to the top of North Head Lighthouse. So we had quite a full day today.
