We don’t own bikes. In the back of my mind I’ve always wanted to ride bikes as a family, but by the time V was big enough – and healthy enough – to try a bike trailer, I thought she … Continue reading
We stayed in the “Beachcomber” cottage. It has 2 full bedrooms, a loft with 2 twin beds and 2 full baths. The Beachcomber is not ADA, but it met our needs. I was able to wheel V up the one … Continue reading
Seeing billboards advertising Seabrook, a newer Washington coastal community, it looked intriguing, but for some reason or another I have never planned the trip. I think sometimes it’s just easier to go someplace tried and true. As we approached the … Continue reading

Another surprise when doing my research for our Twilight Movie Road Trip – the La Push beach scenes were actually filmed over 200 miles away at Indian Beach just north of Cannon Beach. This actually worked out great because we … Continue reading
Back on the road, we were headed to the View Point Inn, the scene of Bella and Edward’s prom. Unfortunately the View Point Inn had a fire last year, but the stunning views of the Columbia Gorge remain. I spoke … Continue reading
After a restful night of sleep and a relaxing morning, we were back on the road to our next stop: the Carver Café, where Bella and her dad ate dinner a couple of times. It looked exactly like it did … Continue reading
