Finally some photos from our fun Astoria trip!
We left Friday afternoon (2 Fridays ago) and made our way down Highway 26. A little someone who has recently potty-trained needed to use the facilities on the way, and our good fortune! we were near one of my favorite parks. I walked around with the 4 other kids while Marcus hauled out the tiny plastic potty and helped his little girl relieve herself.

| This is the stump of North America's (former) largest Sitka spruce tree. |
 |
| It didn't look that impressive until the kids got closer and you could really see how wide the trunk was! |
 |
| It damaged in the big wind storm a few years ago, and for safety it was cut down. |
 |
| This guy looks like a dinosaur!! |
 |
| Gemma joined us soon enough. |
 |
| A different tree--so cool! |
So we made our way to the coast with a fun experience already!!
Aw, I loved that tree! Sad that its gone but glad the area is still open for you to see stump.
