Whaler's Rest

So gentle reader last you heard from us we were in Whaler's Rest. We liked it so much we only blogged once. There was mist, fog along the coast and it looked like smog but smelled better. The place is so lush and green, the trails are thru woods and thick green stuff - not like hiking in California which means walking on hot barren rocks...

We took a bus to Newport and walked the Deco district and historic Bay Street - we had Yaquima(sp?) clams - that's the bay there whatever its name...We saw people claming and guys flash steaming clams and cleaning fish caught by the tourist boat that morning.

We loved Whaler's rest - each site was seperated by beatuiful trees with a little trail behind and we had a fire pit and burned a log - all over here and northern cal - even in yosemite, there are empty and full logging trucks - they seemed to go every way full and empty - what is a log worth do you think? How long to grow to the lebgth of a semi trailer? Just keep logging - send them to some country where they make stuff out of wood...
