After breakfast we packed up and headed to Oceanside Beach, south of Tillamook. It was a beautiful drive down 101. We arrived at low tide and made the walk to towards the cliff to a cool man made tunnel to lead us to the beach on the other side. We saw many tide pools but no creatures in them :( I accidentaly left the baby carrier in the car but I figured this would be ideal conditions for Tommy to walk on the amooth packed sand and we'd carry him the short walk over the rocks. But of course he didn't want to walk on the sand, so we carried him most of the way. We found neat rocks, Owen found one the shape of a pryamid. After our beach adventure we headed to the Tillamook Cheese factory.

It was packed! We ordered lunch (grilled cheese sandwiches) and took the self guided walking tour. When we finished the tour, found a table, and our lunch was ready (perfect timing). After we ate lunch we had ice cream (the true reason we went). Owen had a jr. cone of cake batter and Josh and I shared a waffle bowl of utterly peanut buttery and mud pie. Tommy was too busy, to want any ice cream which is ok by me.

When we returned it was such a beautiful day, we skipped Tommy's nap and went to the beach. It was windy (of course) but gorgeous!
After dinner and just after smores it started to rain :( Bad enough that we couldn't enjoy our campfire. It rained all night and continued during breakfast. We decided to scrap our plan to go hiking. We packed up in the rain and left. That was the end of our camping trip, we are so thankful for the previous great weather.
Well we beat the rain home and unpacked in the sunshine. :)
