Tillamook and our first view of the coast!

So here we are after spending the night with Jeff's cousin Loren, and getting a flat tire fixed.  Back on the road again!  Surrounded by trees!!! On our way to Tillamook!
 I don't know if you can read the speed sign there, but it says 40.  You would never believe it unless you saw it, but the people there all followed the speed limit signs!!! The ones who didn't where almost always from Utah, or Washington with a couple in Oregon cars!  It was WONDERFUL!!!!!  It just added to the chill out vibe that seemed to be felt across the state!
 Here is Tillamook! and the Cheese factory!  We went in to sample the cheeses and have some Ice cream!  It was all extremely yummy! Our favorite hotel was here too, the Shilo Inn was so cute and clean!  I would have stayed there longer if we had the time!  We got there and were checking in and the lady at the desk was asking us the date, and it dawned on me that it was the 5th! Our anniversary!  We had been having too much fun to remember!!!
 Here are the happy Tillamook cows!!! I loved the smell out there too, it means farm life to me and I have always loved it! :o)
 Here is our first view of the coast!
 This is the fog that rolls in every evening.  It really looks like it rolls in!  I loved it!
 Here was a little fishing boat that was just sitting out there adding to the ambiance.

 The trees with the fog rolling through them

 I loved the trees here, they had so much personality!!!
 And all that lovely moss hanging off their branches!!!
 This was the little light house that was out there, it was really the only one we saw, or stopped to see.

 Here is proof that I was there :o)

 Moss on the tree trunks!
More fog rolling in!
