Dream Date Hike Ecola State Park

Last week we drove to Ecola State Park just north of Cannon Beach.  John needed some sea air.

Those are surfers in wet suits at Indian Beach.  Surfing is pretty good in Oregon but the water is cold.

 Our hike took us along Tillamook head with a view of the old Tillamook lighthouse known as Terrible Tillie.  It was very treachorous to build and take care of.  In storms the waves often go over the top of the lighthouse and sometimes the water would extinguish the light.

But we were there on a pretty calm day.

 This is the road inside Ecola State Park.

The traffic was pretty bad when we got close to Portland even on a Tuesday.  The traffic is getting worse and worse in Portland.
