We picked up the kids from Camp Meriwether on Wednesday and traveled 15 minutes north to Pacific City, where my friend Heather's parents have a house. Three families stayed in Pacific City 3 nights and had a nice time eating, talking, clamming, tide pooling....
 |
Duffy Family (daughter is AJ), Hoins family (daughter Ursula) and Lee Family |
 |
Bill, Erik, Dae |
 |
Forgot to bring rain boots for clamming and borrowed Heather's mom's pink boots! hahahaha! |
 |
Amy and Erik were quite good at clamming. Erik even got our sole geoduck |
 |
Sand Surfing. It was surprisingly slow going down this relatively steep hill. |
 |
The little sled went pretty fast |
 |
All the adults tried too. |
 |
Outside the RV park central store where we got everything (small groceries, root beers, rental sand surfboards) |
 |
Clamming. Quite fun, and we got so many clams. We had to stop once we had about 100 total, after about 45 minutes of clamming. The area was extremely muddy - we were all filthy when we trekked back. And if you weren't careful you'd get stuck in the mud like quicksand! |
 |
The clam gun was effective, but every time Dae pulled it up he managed to kill clams in the process :( |
 |
Tidepooling. Some good sized starfish! |
 |
Olin's sand crab friend |
 |
Yummy s'mores |
 |
All the kids tried their hand at shucking oysters - successfully! |
 |
Both kids tried oysters. They didn't hate them! |
 |
Pretty jellyfish |
