"Camping" (Day 2)

All during the night, the wind howled and the rain pelted the top of the trailer. It was quite the storm. But we were toasty warm and comfortable.

Jake woke up first thing Thursday morning feeling dizzy. The next thing we know, he's asking for a garbage can and proceeded to throw up in it. Great. Jake was sick and we were hanging out in close quarters. We waited about a half hour before giving him a small sip of water as our "test." He threw that up too which convinced us he had the stomach flu. In light of the new situation, we made plans to go sightseeing along the coast the next day and laid low.

Jake was actually feeling better about an hour later and hadn't gotten sick again, so we decided to bundle up and venture outdoors for some "fresh air"and a walk down to the beach and around the campground.


We found some cool mushrooms on our walk. Check 'em out!




Karcyn was a peach. The wind and rain didn't bother her one bit.

I didn't hear a peep out of Calvin either. He could have been in shock, but I'd like to believe he was being a trooper like the rest of us. At least no one can say we're wusses. We're even smiling as the wind was whipping that fine misty rain all around us! Wooo doggie!


Calvin says, "I just survived my first walk through icky, wet, Oregon coastal weather."

Ok, seriously, if Calvin gets any cuter I am going to come and steal him...I wish that I was there to snuggle your babies. I still remember little Jakey...
