Camping 2013 - Fort Stevens, Oregon

Our first camping trip of the season finally happened the end of July.  We headed to Fort Stevens for a long weekend.  Fort Stevens is near Astoria, Oregon.


The weather literally changed dramatically once we got down there.  It was a good thing I packed us a pair of pants "just in case."   The weather didn't stop us from exploring this huge campground.  Morgan attended the Junior Ranger program and learned all about owls.  We rode our bikes all around the campground checking out the bunkers, lake and beach.
 







Brooke loved the beach.  Oh to be a kid and just slide your body in the soft sand.  Luckily the showers were convenient and clean.




This camping trip we got to spend some time with Jeremy and Emerson for a few days.  While momma stayed home with their new baby. Emerson and Brooke had a blast together.  There's something more fun about camping with a friend.
 




Even with the weather being a little chilly we managed to have a great time hanging out together.



Grandma Diana even treated us to root beer floats.  What a great treat!



This was Beau's first camping trip with the family.  He wanted to play with every dog that walked by, but eventually realized he was on vacation and needed to relax.   


Fort Stevens was a great campground and I would recommend going.  Lots to explore on the campground itself and easy to checkout Astoria or Seaside for a day trip.  Just remember to pack a pair of pants "just in case."
