Sunset, Moonrise in Oysterville

What a great day! It started with a little Bike ride in Longview- Raegan's first.  It took her a while to understand how pedaling worked.  Her little legs would go one or two revolutions forward and then that darn kid coordination thing would kick in and she'd peddle backward halting all progress.  It was a lot of teaching, but after a while she started getting the hang of it.   

One thing we love about this area is the deep history.  We run into it everywhere we go. That's me and Mr. Clark by the way in front of one of the many 10' sturgeons he saw left on the beach from high tide. After that it was off to Oysterville.  On the way we spotted this little creative/ old chowder house. What you are looking at is a flat wall sided with cedar shingles in a way to give it a 3 dimensional look.

Oysterville was cool! It's a street tucked away from the main road, and has about 15 houses on it. Most were built in 1800's and every one has a ton of character. It still has the original school and an old church.

And yes since I was in Oysterville, I did stop in their one shop and learn how to shuck a oyster and eat one....raw. 

Now that's dedication!

After that we watched the most amazing sunset...... amazing.

Then on the way back we were treated to a full moon rise, although my little point and shoot camera couldn't capture the the mountains.

It was a great day.
