Whalers Rest & Newport

It was rainy driving over and and a mist the next day. Then the sun came out and was gorgeous the rest of our stay. Sometimes it was foggy in the am but clear by noon.

We have started walking every morning. We have been walking the beach in the morning when the tide is low, the sand is hard and makes for easy walking.

That’s me jogging to catch up. Some days it was foggy in the morning.

We would come come back wet and bedraggled looking. And this day was especially so since we had just walked 9 miles.

Theresa and Megan were camping at South Beach State Park. We spent some quality time with them and took them crabbing on the dock in Newport.

She got the hang of tossing in the crab ring. We caught quite a few but only a few keepers.

This one is definitely a keeper.

Went back to South Beach and Megan & Theresa fixed a great salmon dinner.
