This blog post is going up a big later than usual... we had some internet connection difficulty that is now fixed :-).
Monday evening we went to the Astoria Column. It is on top of a hill and has some great views. I'm not a fan of heights, but I went up it and took a few pictures. It is 164 steps to the top!!
 |
| As a way to fund the column, you could purchase a step. I particularly like step #143! |
 |
| This door meets you at the top right before going outside! |
After the column, we went to visit Luke's grandparents again. I really enjoy being able to see them. On the way Luke showed me another house he lived in.
 |
| 1419 5th St |
|
Tuesday morning we went to see the sights, and headed to Long Beach, WA. The sun was shining! Luke even got pretty sunburned, which isn't that unusual if you know him!
 |
| The first fire department Luke volunteered with. |
 |
| Luke and the chief!! |
 |
| House #3-- 91299 Walluski Loop. |
 |
| The church Luke's father was a pastor at. |
 |
| Youngs River Falls |
 |
| The Sun!!!!!!!!!!!! We are in Long Beach! |
 |
| I found a cookie as large as my hand!! |
 |
| The sun!! A little blurry, but it's there! |
 |
| It was nice, so we went horse back riding by the beach. Luke got Bucky-- he didn't like to move very fast! |
 |
| I was riding Butter- she was a really hungry horse that stopped many times for grasses! |
After we left Long Beach, we headed back to Astoria. We stopped at the jail from the Goonies:
We were blessed to be invited to dinner by the Jones family. We had a wonderful time visiting and catching up. Their girls were a bit attached to me!
 |
| Faith wanted a picture with me, but wasn't cooperating with the camera! |
Next stop was a sunset over the ocean. We went back to the Peter Iredale.
 |
| I got a bit wet in the ocean trying to get a picture- it was worth it! |
 |
| All together now---- awwwwwwwwwwwwww. |
Heading out for the day now, more to come later!
