The coast didn't disappoint...

WOW.  I was concerned that we would have too much fog or too cold of a breeze or some other such thing.  But it was a great day on the coast.  The sun was out, the wind not to strong, a bit cool... but it is December for pete's sake!

We saw a few big redwood trees, Crescent City in California and Brookings, Oregon.  All the beaches that we stopped at offered great treasures for gathering... rocks, driftwood, shells and the like.

We ate at a nice restaurant with DELICIOUS food.  Smugglers' Cove in Brookings was our dinner location and they were top notch.  PopPop and Geemah claim that they had the best fish and chips of their life there!! (They lived in England for nearly 3 years... you'd think that they would have found the "best" over there!  Who am I to say... I don't eat fish and chips!!) Aunt JoJo tried the crab cakes and said they were spectacular.  Pops had a platter with several selections of seafood... he said they were good.  I'll take his word for it! Branch and Blossom had buttered noodles and Bud had a sirloin steak, veggies and a baked potato along with a cup of clam chowder!  I had dinner salad and crab cocktail with melted butter... mmmmmmm. DeLish!  We ventured home in the dark and boy am I beat.  It was fun.  It was a great fun day.  Tomorrow?  Should be a blast, too!
