Spring Break

We finally made it to Spring Break! After a slightly less than 100 mile drive across the Cascades, we found our way to Oceanside and the little apartment we rented there. It even came with several level 2 EV chargers alleviating any range anxiety we may have had. (Even though we could have made the full trip without recharging until back home again, it did put our minds at ease. Charging was free, too - even better!) 

We figure it must have been more than a decade since we've been in Oceanside - time flies! 


We all enjoyed the beach, of course, and engaged in some much needed rest and relaxation; be it walks on the beach, through town, or board games and Lego during the inevitable rain showers this time of year.





Behold the largest Spruce in Oregon: 144 feet tall, more than 15 feet in diameter - the photo doesn't do it justice without a puny human next to it for scale...in contrast, Cape Meare's lighthouse is - at 38 feet - the shortest of Oregon...



Views were breathtaking all around, internet connectivity notoriously poor, which made for a great little getaway!
