Brookings to Crissey Fields Beach

It's not as easy as it used to be, finding available campsites to stay overnight while traveling. There is no longer the first to arrive who will get dibbs at a sight. The spotinaety of seek and find treasure spots for camping is almost impossible without online reservations. In my week long road trip along the coast of Oregon, the first night, I got lucky in Lincoln City. I pulled up to a campsite registry booth, and the young man had just hung up the phone with a cancellation, I paid $23.00 for a raw campsite. Because it was pouring rain, there was no place to cook my can of soup. Azul and I snuggled into the back of my Bronco Sport car ( which is a bit on the short side, I discovered). In the morning, the rain had stopped, and I was able to set up the picnic table for brewing coffee and cooking oatmeal. But that was the last campsite available on this road trip. The other nights, I parked on quiet nooks beside roads and slept in a couple of rest stops. I had one pampered sleepover at Amy's in Ophir.
Leaving the Brookings Harbor, Azul and I stopped at Crissey Fields to have another beach walk. I enjoy seeing all the driftwood architecture on almost every beach.
And there, I found my heart rock 🪨 💕. It's a rather wonky heart, but it's a heart all the same.もっと詳しく
