Week 4 begins

Tim: Today is our last full day in Eureka and we have had a good one. We did have some rain again, but much less than we have had any day since we arrived. We were at the Border's today and overheard a worker in the cafe say that Eureka gets more rain than Seattle...after being here for the last week, I certainly would agree with him. Being a Gulf Coast native, I have never seen more rain in a week back home than I did this week and it is very wet there.

The picture above is of the Fisherman's Memorial in Eureka Marina, with a good shot of the Old Town area behind it. We enjoyed our brief stay here but are definitely ready to hit the road again. Our next destination: Cannon Beach, Oregon and Ecola State Park, the final destination of Lewis and Clark on their journey west. We will be staying at a resort there for at least four days. We have heard that the Oregon Coast is just gorgeous and apparently the northern coast has some the best beaches in the nation. It will be something else. The beaches here are not too nice and we are looking forward to seeing sandy white beaches again.

Today marks our the beginning of our fourth week on the "Pause on Purpose" journey. During this trip, we have stayed three nights in hotels with the rest of the nights being in Kamping Kabins or tents. We are looking forward to staying in a resort with actual bathrooms and showers in the room. Additionally, we are looking forward to having Internet access in our room again. That will be a good change!

Have a great day and we will post when we get to Cannon Beach!
