That waterfall hike looks wonderful!! I've always wanted to return to Salem and now I have an extra reason! The site at the park is huge! And what a gorgeous backyard. I think at times it is good to get away from the computer. It's good you got some reading done.

We would love to camp there--thank you for this post. Sorry to hear about the sunglasses! You're probably in Lincoln City now--my hometown! You'll have beautiful weather--enjoy! And if the candy store is still there by the A&W Root Beer on the west side of 101, be sure to stop & buy salt water taffy. They make it right there & it's the best!
