Tillamook

Justin's mom and step dad (Robin and David) are in Oregon for the month and we have been enjoying their visit! They are staying at their friend's vacation house in Tillamook, Oregon and we have gone out to visit them a few times. The house is located on the hilltop overlooking Oceanside and Tillamook Bay, and it is quite the site to see. We spent some time enjoying nature in the mountains, watching bald eagles, deer and elk roam freely. We also had amazing weather for the coast allowing us to spend two hot days at the beach (the Oregon coast is rarely warm enough for good beach days so we took advantage of it). Here are a few pictures!

The amazing view from the wrap around deck!
Rough Skinned Newts in the pond
(note to self: never touch-extremely poisonous)

Some kind of wild flower that lined the 2.5 mile driveway
We spent a day at Oceanside Beach!


And a day at Pacific City/Cape Kiwanda!

The house is so high up that the clouds were below us. On Wednesday night,
the sun set on top of the clouds. It was so pretty!
