Out and about Whalers Rest

The Thousand Trails campground where we are parked is Whalers Rest. It is near Newport, Oregon.

On Monday, we drove into Newport for lunch... we stopped for lunch at Mo's Seafood and Chowder.

Delicious clam chowder...

... and shrimp salad sandwich...

... and tuna melt sandwich! Yum!!!

We had had our mail sent to the Newport Post Office General Delivery, so we picked that up, and also stopped at US Foods ChefStore to see what they had and pick up a few groceries (mainly a large pork shoulder for smoking later this week).

Back at the campground, we decided to go for a walk...

There are beautiful rhododendrons around the campground...

... lovely!

We followed the walking path from the campground to the beach -- there was quite a cloud bank, and it was chilly...

... so we didn't actually walk down to the beach but enjoyed it from above.

It is again cool here, like it was in Florence. It is nowhere near as windy as Coos Bay, so we're thankful for that! Miss Kitty would like a bit more sunshine... but she is surviving with laps, heat vents, and getting under covers!
