Can you believe that temperatures were in the 70's last week? I love this time of year, it's not so hot that you don't want to do anything. It may be a bit rainy or blustery still, but it's still a good time to hit the great outdoors. How wonderful that we are in the Pacific Northwest and we have so many amazing places to explore.
Whether you want to go beach combing and hunt for shells or glass floats (check out Lincoln City's Finders Keepers program) or be one with nature and explore some amazing hiking trails, now is the time to start! Part of my thinking is that if I start planning activities now, I may actually do them before the end of summer.- referring back to my post on chaotic lives. My daughter and I are determined to have at least one adventure every week during summer break. So, we are going to start with baby steps and try to do a few things before the end of the school year.
We have a great selection of books on things to do in/with nature. We also have quite a few local field guides. Here is a small selection of books about hiking and things to do in the outdoors.
Hiking: Where do you want to go? Washington? Oregon? We've got you covered. Do you have a favorite spot to hike? I have several friends who like to go to Beaver Falls in Clatskanie, OR. I've been there once, but it's been a few years. We also like going up to Seaquest in Castle Rock, WA
