Last-minute Dash

We planned a 3-day, 750 mile dash down to CA, up along the Oregon coast, then back home. It was our final family trip before school resumes. I wanted our kids to see and do some of the things I did as a kid with my family. On the menu: Trees of Mystery, Ocean World, tide pool sloshing, light houses, Redwoods, sand dune thrill ride, antique shop browsing, and the Sea Lion Caves.
Ocean World

Redwoods Drive, with a stop along the Smith River


Trees of Mystery

Sand Dunes - the slower ride for our little ones. See Smeech in the very back?

The 1/2 hour, 60 mph thrill ride for the big boys:

Sea Lion Caves

That was a lot to see and do in three days - I'm impressed. Looks like you had a great time.
