West Coast Chillin

So yesterday we awoke in Tillamook and rode 50 gorgeous miles on the Oregon coast to Seaside.
Our planned place to stay fell through, aka "Elaine Heckerd" wasn't home, so all of our excitement to go to her house was bombed when no one answered the door. Luckily warm showers pulled through and we got a sweet hook up with Mr Neil Branson. He lives four blocks from the beach so we got a good beach walk in, final destination: ice cream. We wanted to stay in seaside for Sunday, too, for a rest day before our final WHOPPING 20 miler into Astoria. Neil said we were more than welcome. So here we are.
We actually got breakfast with Neil and some friends in Astoria this morn, then I went to church at the aptly named parish of Our Lady of Victory. Nowwww we're about to head off for a mini road trip to Washington state in Neil's car. Sweet deal--another state crossed off my list!
The pacific is beautiful and cold and i'm excited to go in it sooooon.
