Last couple days in Seaside, OR

The last couple days have been quieter, and the warm sunny weather has been fading away, changing to cloudy skies and rain.

On Thursday I chauffeured and walked with mom around downtown Seaside, shopping as we went.  Scott and the family went to Fort Clatsop just north of us and we met up again mid-afternoon.  After dinner we all got together at the cabin and played "Things".  Oh the things you can learn about your family when you play games such as that - let me tell you! It is a little concerning.  Thursday night the rain just pounded down for the whole night and most of Friday morning.

Friday we got together for breakfast and then headed south of town in search of what is supposed to be the 3rd largest Sitka Spruce tree (stump) in the world.  We found it but only four of us were willing to make our way out into the rain to see it and snap a couple pictures.



Then after lunch we made our way back to large salt water taffy and ice cream parlour we visited the first day we were in town and were escaping the rain.  This time we had a winner at Spin the Wheel (the previous time we just got a free taffy each).


and then we  all partook in an ice cream cone (to be clear we had one cone each) - courtesy of Grandma/Mom - thanks again to our latest sugar fix.
