Pacific Coast Vacation Part 1

We took a really fun vacation to the Oregon coast at the beginning of June.

We stayed in a cabin at a state park near Astoria. The state park, Ft. Stevens, has a lot to do and see. From the website: "Fort Stevens was once the primary military defense installation in the three-fort, Harbor Defense System at the mouth of the Columbia River (Forts Canby and Columbia in Washington were the other two). The fort was in service for 84 years, beginning during the Civil War and closing at the end of World War II." The park also has a ship wreck. The ship, the Iredale, ran aground in 1906, and all that's left is a skeleton of rusty bars.

We ate at Rogue Brewery, which was out on a pier in an old fish cannery building.
