As Northwest As You Can Get!

Over the past week or so we have made our way up (and down and up again) the coast or Oregon and today we will reach our destination of the western most point in the lower US in Washington state on an Indian Reservation.

One of the cool places to visit in Oregon is Tillamook and once there there are a couple of places that you should see along with everybody else who visits this cool coastal town. If you are into French Cheeses then the Blue Heron Cheese Factory is for you.

Oh Yeah, they have a petting zoo for the kids too.

The Tillamook Creamery is a definite have to visit, I think. The factory tour is one of the best we've been on, the product for sale in the on site store is less expensive then you can buy it out in the world (and it probably should be all things considered) the people that work there are the genuinely nice and friendly making it real (even though they see 500, 000 people per year mostly in the summer. 3 t0 5,000 per day)

and the Ice Cream is so great it almost beats the Ice Cream at the Flamingo in Key West.

She may not know it but this is our new cheese connection, Mary Jo. In this picture, everyone but Michaela, forgot to say CHEESE!

This is also the land of smoked salmon and beef and cod and cheese and anything else you want smoked. But it truly is the home of some of the nicest people we've met. You can bring your catch of the day into Debbies D's Smoke Shack and they will fillet it and smoke it for you, to order.

I guess you could say that in Tillamook somebody is always smokin' something!

And when your staying in Netarts Bay, There is no movie theater unless you go into town so you're better off having your own movie theater under the dining room table in the motorhome.
