53

To celebrate our fifty third wedding anniversary we decided to go to the coast.  This is our first stop at Bradley State Scenic Viewpoint.  A nice delivery lady from Vancouver Bolt took the picture for us.
Our next stop was the Astoria waterfront to take some pictures of the boats.  We learned something, the sea lions are loud!
I really like the Pilot boat they have on display.  We stopped at the Warrenton Costco for gas and a few snacks.
We had lunch at Norma's and it was excellent!  We both had the combo lunch, Vera had hers sauteed and I had mine deep fried.
After lunch we went for a walk up to the turnaround.  We couldn't see too far as the low clouds hadn't cleared off yet.  We went back on the other side of the street until we found a candy shop we like the looks of.  Vera got one piece she liked and I got two pieces of something that turned out tasting great!
We always stop at the Neahkahnie Viewpoint when we are down in this area it is one of our favorite spots to take pictures.  We turned around there and headed home.
We went up the Washington side on the way home.  Vera is reading the signage to see why it was called Clark's Dismal Nitch.  When Lewis and Clark came through here bad weather caused them to be stuck there for six days and it was not a pleasant stay.
We stopped for another photo op at the Cathlamet Boat Basin, this was the last picture.  We stopped at Fred Meyer for a few things and went home.  The Mitsubishi was very comfortable to spend an eight hour day in.  James came by this evening and we looked at a small issue with his car that we will fix tomorrow.
