We enjoyed a week in Seaside with friends Ron & Connie and her mom Bev (forgot to get their picture) and cousins Tom and Linda in picture. We visited Fort Clatsop where Lewis & Clark wintered in 1805-1806. It is the second reconstruction of the fort - the first was burned by an arsonist a few years ago. They are still working on finishing the project (chinking the chimney), but looks the same except for new logs and the wonderful smell of pine! We all went on a shopping expedition to the outlet mall and downtown Seaside. Unfortunately the weather remained cool and misty
We are now in Washington near Issaquah and it is still cool and wet and looks like that is the way it will be for awhile. Tom and Linda are next to us and she is driving to work in Monroe each day. There are still some people working - we all can't be retired and relaxing!

Raining in Oregon/Wash, hard to believe. :-) If I remember right, of the 3 1/2 months Lewis & Clark spent at Fort Clatsop, they only saw 6 days of sunshine! That's worse than Michigan.
