We have been here for a little less than a week, and we have managed to see a few cool things. Not all of them have been in Seaside. The weather hasn’t been the best, but we’ve tried to make the most of it. We have tried a few places to eat. A mexican restaurant that we will never return…
We made it! We stopped in Pendleton, Oregon last night. We had dinner at a local bar/restaurant then headed back to settle in for the evening. On our way out of Pendleton, we stopped for gas. Scott got out to pump, and to his surprise it was a full service station. Didn’t even know those places still existed. We filled…

In the afternoon we ran downtown to look around. Here are some shots from tonight.

Video to follow once we get to Seaside.…

After leaving Rockingham, we spent a couple of days in Murphy, NC with Scott’s parents. Here we are leaving NC.
