Day 23: Beverly Beach SP, OR to Hoquiam, WA

Not as windy today, but lots of light rain most of the day. It did dry out in the last 40 miles, so Magee's were able to set their pop-up without everything getting wet. It is still chilly - - 51 at 8:30 PM (and still pretty bright out, despite the clouds. Made a quick stop at Lewis & Clarke National Historic Park - - three stamps in the book and three patches. Interesting place - - those guys were true adventurors!!! The bridge over the Columbia River was at least two miles long (and felt about a half mile high!) Found a nice campground with WiFi, laundry, and showers. It is really easy to get set up when the site is level and you can pull through. Couple nights ago, I had a really hard time backing the trailer into our site - - had to go up the way and around a loop to turn around and back in from the opposite direction (a little embarrassing).

Gena - How do always find the chilly weather?! Looks like you're having fun. Lewis & Clark would have taken the same picture of the Astoria Bridge if they had had a camera and there had been a bridge.
