Pacific City OR.

We arrived at Pacific City Resort 8/3/2011 and found a full hookup site. It was the only one left so we were lucky. It is a nice site but there is no phone service for Verizon and the air card does not work either. So we have to us the Wifi at the club house. Park is spread out all over the place and is hard to walk as there are some bad hills. From where we are camped you have to drive to the club house as it is some distance away.
We went to Pacific City for a look around. It is about all you can do right around here. Stopped at the Pelican Pub as friends said we should. It was a nice place and that makes its own beer. Found one I liked but that was about all. We had lunch there too but it was nothing to right home about. High priced and taste was about average. Watched one Dory boat come in and that was a kick. As they head for the beach at full speed and run the boat as far up the sand as they can. Then the load them on a trailer and off they go.
Ran to Tillamook on the bike to run around and had a good time. Went to the cheese factory and did the tour and had some ice cream. Also went to the Air Museum and if you like old planes it would be great. I liked it but not really into planes. Also got two new tires on the front of the Freightliner as the old ones were not in good shape. Also went to Fred Meyers to stock up on Beer and food.
Also spent some time at the beach watching the Dory boats come in. That was real cool to see more than one do it. They sure are fast at getting them on the sand and loaded and gone. Seen some real nice fish and crabs in the boats. No they didn't offer any to us. Bummer.... Also found a place on the north end of the beach that had rocks covered with Barnacles and Mussels. That was nice but you cant take any live ones off the rocks. We did find some dead ones that we could have.
We left 8-10 and drove 45 miles to our next stop.
