Camping on the Oregon Coast

Last week was another Anderson reunion, this time in the Redwoods. Our family decided to take advantage of the location and go camping for a couple days along the Oregon coast before we met up with the rest of the clan.

Mapping out our trip

We made the drive to Harris Beach State Park in a day. The kids were so happy to be out of the car!

The next day, the park ranger took all the kids on a tide pool walk along the coast. We got to see lots of marine life.

There's a crab hidden deep in this crevice

We came back later that afternoon for a chance to play in the sand. The water was pretty cold, so the kids didn't venture in much.

I tried out a couple new recipes in my dutch oven. Pizza night!

I wish I got more pictures, especially of the campsite. There was a nice playground and trails, blackberries, etc. Wish we had another day or two there. But we were off to see the beautiful Redwoods!
