Happy birthday Nate! He's 27 years old.
Nate wanted to go camping for his birthday. Last weekend we took a trip out to Beverly Beach near Newport. We stayed in a yurt at the camp ground right by the beach. We didn't get any pictures of it of course because we were distracted by the natural beauty of the coast, but we both highly recommend this park, and yurting.
The sun came out for the day. Nate built a fire in the fire pit and we roasted hot dogs for dinner. Our neighbor camp site had a van full of little girls. They couldn't wait to get out on their bikes and race around the park. Behind our yurt was a creek kind of thing full of skunk cabbage (I think that's what it's called). Anyway, the bullfrogs love that spot. They would start making their calls around 6 and chat back and forth until about 10pm.
I was hoping to do some whale watching while we were at the beach. We borrowed my Dad's binoculars and stopped along the side of the road a few times. I guess this is the time of year for whale watching. We saw a lot of birds boats and buoys...=) but no whales. Maybe next year.
We did however, see quite a bit of ocean life at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. Nate seemed to really enjoy the jelly fish tank. They looked so elegant floating around together with spot lights on them.
Our neighbors and some friends came over last night for birthday cake. Again, I did not take any pictures of that either...but Nate got some of the cake!
Here they are.
Happy birthday Nate!
