Escape to... Oregon?

We had planned to go camping this weekend however the forecast was rain, rain, and more rain. So we pulled out the map and looked for places that may not have rain. We got further and further until we ended up in Oregon. We drove 6 hours in hopes of escaping the rain.

With no success. I know we are nuts.
We drove up to our KOA spot in the rain. But it didn't rain on anyone's parade...literally as NOTHING stops them from camping. We did rent for the first time a KOA cabin, which was very cozy, clean and warm and would recommend. They fell in love with Oregon, and were sad we were only there for such a short time. We MUST go back.

We missed the bus all around though....
We missed the sand castle competition. (they rescheduled because of rain)
We missed any food left at the world renowned bakery. We got their at noon, they laughed at us and told us everything is usually gone by 8am.
We missed the chance to climb the Lewis and Clark tower, they were doing fire rescue drills. We missed any sun...it really did rain. 24/7
I missed dry socks.

But we STILL loved it there and of course we had a blast together.































Love these dirty wet socks...
