Just a few miles away....

Day 54, May 25, 1997

Oregon Dunes

5 km

We packed up and headed north, looking for a new place to stay. This time we wanted shower facilities. We found what we were looking for just a few miles up the road. We had been staying in Forest Service sites and paying $14 US for our site, with access to flush toilets (not always in pretty condition) and cold running water. The state park, on the other side of the road from the dunes, was $15 and offered electricity and water at every site, hot running water in the washrooms, and showers. We also found that there were no mosquitoes on this side of the road! We parked.

We spent the rest of the day drying out in the sun, writing, and reading.
