After we left Hoh Rain Forest we headed south on 101 along the coast. 101 is a highway that makes a loop around Olympic National Park and then goes down along the coast of Washington and the coast of Oregon. As we made the turn along the coast we got a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. It is gorgeous. We continued driving until we reached Pacific Beach State Park. We got a site on the ocean for two nights. As we were setting up a fog rolled in and you couldn’t tell where the ocean was and as it was low tide you could barely hear it. Around 6:30 p.m. the fog lifted and we took a walk on the beach. It was very cold and windy but there was an absolutely gorgeous sunset. We walked a mile or two and watched the birds and seagulls.
On Saturday we drove into Ocean Shore, WA and had lunch at a nice the Homesport Restaurant. The food was delicious. We had to get a bulb for the truck because the left turn signal was burnt out. We went to ACE Hardware that also had a Radio Shack inside. You could buy anything from work clothing to plumbing to souvenirs to wedding gifts. It was like a department store. On the way out of Ocean Shores we stopped at a casino and won a $20.00. Steve had a lucky machine….
