Camping Trip 2017 - Gold Beach

For this leg of our trip, Dave scheduled us a nice hotel to stay in for two nights. This way we could get good showers and catch up on laundry =).

We headed south to Gold Beach, Oregon. 

Lovely view from our balcony...

This hotel portion of our trip came at the perfect time, as Brother fell ill during our drive to Gold Beach. Poor kid had a fever and even threw up once during our drive! I felt SO bad for him! 

I loved having a place to give him a nice warm bath and then a comfy bed to crash in as he recovered. 

And CRASH he did...

The hotel also had a laundry room, so I was able to get all our camping clothes and such washed and clean, which felt great.

While we were in town, we visited one of David's favorite breakfast spots...

And took the kids to the beach to enjoy the gorgeous scenery...

It may have been summer time, but it's pretty much always windy on the Oregon coast =)

Lucky for us the wind was minor, and we killed a lot of time just hanging out on the beach one of our days.

Thankfully, Brother was back to feeling like himself pretty quickly...

Gold Beach is not large  but has some fun places to play. The kids both loved this park, and we killed a lot of time playing here one of our days...

Even though our kids were only semi - interested in all we/Dave had to show them about where he'd been before (just keeping it real!), it was still special for him to be able to do so...

We all enjoyed the luxury of a hotel after several nights of camping. It was great to have soft beds, hot showers, TV to watch and a swimming pool to play in. 

But, after two nights there, we were ready for more camping ;)
