Exploring Warrenton, OR

Now you ask me why are we exploring Warrenton, OR?  We have been asked by Adventure Caravans to check on a couple of campgrounds here in the area for the start of the West Coast Tour.  So our first stop was a Kamp West Kampground,
The enters was a nice set up, and the people are great here, but the sites --

are small and the big rigs may have a little bit of problem getting into these sites.  They only have 30 AMP also.  So now on to the other campground we were here to check out.
The next one was a KOA , the people here were real helpful also, and showed us the park.
 These site are all pull through and
they have both 50 & 30 AMP through out the park, not all sites have 50 AMP.  Their are plenty for the rigs that really need 50 AMP.  So this part of the job is over now to find out some information about what to do in the area.
Our first stop was at the
Columbia River Maritime Museum.  We have been through this one a few times and they have a lot of the information about the great job that the Coast Guard does here at the mouth of the Columbia River.  We know of a few other places to go but first we need to stop off at the
Visitor Center here in Astoria to pick up some information and get a feel for where we will look next.  It was getting late in the day, so we will be back over the Astoria Bridge in a few days and do some more scouting of the area.
 For some of you that will be visiting this area this summer stop and take a look at a bridge that is celebrating 50 years this year. It is hard to believe it is that old, I remember when it still had the toll's still on the bridge in the early 80's.  As you can see the clouds are heading inland and the sun will be coming back in the next few days.  Got to like the sun at the beach.
Oh, I almost forgot, Cyndy is getting closer to finishing the big bag for our God-Daughter.
She has one more row to go and then to trim it up and added the handles and a couple of other things and this wonderful project or should I say her most trying project done.
