\"Colorful<\/a>
Kites at the Annual Long Beach Kite Festival<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mile 4603, Ocean Park, Washington<\/strong> (local miles only).\u00a0 A cloudless, sunny day with a stiff breeze, ideal for the annual kite flying festival at Long Beach, albeit a bit cool (60 degrees during “the heat of the day”, but fine for me).\u00a0 The kites were wonderful. Very colorful and imaginative.<\/p>\n

Then we went to Cape Disappointment, at the\u00a0entrance to\u00a0the Columbia River, where Lewis and Clark saw the Pacific Ocean.\u00a0 Gorgeous scenery, many pictures.<\/p>\n

We are getting desperate: Too much gorgeous weather keeps us from catching up on our blog posts and email. Plus we need to do laundry, but when?\u00a0The last significant rain we saw was one hour out of Boston.<\/p>\n
