Astoria or bust?!

ASTORIA!!!! Well folks, we made it all in one piece. A mere 36 miles from our city park campsite and we arrived. We made a pit stop at "the Logger" restaurant. In Idaho at a huckleberry/cherry fruit stand we ran into some peeps touring Idaho in their classic cars. There were some people who had a breakdown(car) and we entertained them with stories of life on the road and the ventures had. It ended up that one of the couples had a daughter that owned a restaurant near the OR coast, and we happened to come apon it today. Best of all the parents had returned from the trip, met us there, and bought our lunch! We've come across some seriously generous people. We ate dinner at a local brewery overlooking the water and toasted making it here. Are cozying up at a celebratory motel thanks to ma and pa page :) tomorrow we'll be tourists and explore the maritime museum, eat fish and chips out of a boat, and take the trolley. Then we'll head down the coast for a bit more fun!
