Girls Trip- Going North of Tillamook

 Aug. 4, Day-3

Today we decided to head north of Tillamook. 

 First we picked a bunch of blackberries that were growing right down on the road next to our beach house. Its just so fun to pick them when they are just growing wild everywhere. 

Our first stop was Neahkahnie Mtn. hike, a 1.3 mile uphill all the way!

 

But the view from on top was way worth it!!

After our hike we stopped at Hug Point. We didn't go down to the beach, just hugged!

 Next stop was Cannon Beach to see Haystack Rock, more commonly known as "Goonies Rock".

It was a little cold and windy and foggy!

Cannon Beach is a really cute little town, but it had tons of people everywhere. All the places to eat were so crowded that we ate a little crepe shop, but it was uniquely yummy! While walking back to the car we found Dawes Street!

After Cannon Beach we drove back down the coast to Tillamook. Its a beautiful drive passing through Manzanita, Nehalem, Rockaway, and then passing through Garibaldi where we all worked at the lumber mill. It brought back lots of memories, but is now completely gone. 

We decided we had time to go back to the beach house and get our swimsuits and head up Trask River. My old swimming hole looks exactly the same, still beautiful. We all got in and swam, but the water was definitely COLD! Tami and Lisa jumped off the really high rock, which was brave of them!

After swimming awhile, we headed back into Tillamook to our favorite taco stand and got some dinner.  We had some time to just relax at the beach house. The girls did face masks and we all just talked. It was another really fun day on the Oregon Coast and great spending it with my girls!
