Last Saturday we went with some friends from our ward at church out to Cape Lookout, just a few miles south of Tillamook and hiked a total of 5 miles! It was about 2.5 to the end of the trail which overlooks the Ocean and 2.5 back. We had originally thought we would be hiking the shorter trail that ends at the beach, but somehow got the longer, muddy trail instead. So we were a little dissappointed in that, but it was still fun and gorgeous out and we had a view of the coast and ocean most of the trail! I love the Oregon Coast. It is so pretty. Next time we drive all the way out to the coast though, you can bet we will be going straight to the beach and water. John carried Bear in the hiking backpack and Jackson walked/ran the whole way! He was a trooper and loved it! I couldn't believe how much energy he had. He didn't complain a single bit! In fact, he was still singing and throwing rocks by the end when the rest of us were beat. Gotta love the energy of a year old!
The best part of the day? Ending up at the Tillamook Cheese Factory for some delicious grilled cheese sandwhiches and ice cream of course!

Jealous jealous jealous. Thank you for living in a beautiful place and for taking advantage of it.
I love looking at those pics!
Looks like fun!! We hope to visit the Oregon Coast when we come to Oregon!! It really is a beautiful place!
Sorry this took me so long, I haven't been looking at blogs as much lately ;) but I still can't believe Jackson made it through this whole hike, what a trooper!! Tom and I really need to take on more adventures like this, maybe the kids would surprise us and totally love it (maybe?)
Anyway, I'm SO looking forward to taking these boys to the beach in a few weeks and letting them wear each other out. Here's to making summer plans!!
