Day 139 - Ocean Shores, WA

Today we headed to the coast. Along the way, we stopped to visit some friends who used to live in Fairbanks. They bought an old farm and are planning to start a craft cider business. Looking at the barn I’d say that this is a very ambitious project. The whole barn was lifted and a new foundation was poured. There is also an indoor horse arena with a dozen stalls.

When we arrived on Ocean Shores, we looked for a seafood restaurant for lunch. The cioppino was pretty tasty. I think that this was the first time I had this dish outside of San Francisco. They supplied bread to sop up the delicious broth.

We then drove to the beach. You were allowed to drive your car onto the beach but we didn’t know that when we arrived. There was a corral set up on the beach. Too many people for me. At least at this point in time.

    1. Seafood is a natural for this area. The shrimp on the gulf coast was pretty good though it was all frozen.

    1. Too many people everywhere. And this was a weekday. I’d not want to be here on the weekend.
