We got to Astoria Oregon last night. I wanted to go to the beach and watch the sun set. On our other trip something always got in the way of seeing the sun set over the ocean but not this time :)
This morning was spent in finding all things Goonie!! I was excited that we could see the house from our hotel...it was far away, but you could see it. We drove up there this morning, the owner doesn't mind people coming to take pictures as long as you park at the bottom of the hill and walk up the shared driveway. We loved the sign at the bottom of the drive and David and the boys kind of copied it...picture below :) The house next to Mikey's was Data's house. While leaving the houses we drove by the convenient store where the maid almost gets hit several times. And finally we went to the jail where one of the Fratelli brothers escapes "rooms" set up to make movie snippets. Jacob directed us in the making of the movies and hopefully they will be e-mailed to us soon.
We also spent a little time walking the river walk. We walked down to a pier to see the sea lions. I love the sound of their barking, but their smell is terrible!! We all loved this little town. We all voted to move there!! We can wish I guess.
