Day 3 - Camp 18 and Astoria

A visitor center volunteer recommended Camp 18 for breakfast and it did not disappoint!  The rustic log cabin was so interesting and breakfast was delicious.  The cinnamon roll was the size of a dinner plate - I need a to-go box!  The lodge-style restaurant was built in the 70's with lumber cut and milled on the owner's property.  The ridge pole weighs approximately 25 tons.

The next stop was Flavel House in Astoria.  We had typical Northwest rain all day but all of our activities were indoors so it didn't slow us down.

After Flavel House we visited the maritime museum.  Interesting to read about the many shipwrecks where the Pacific Ocean & Columbia River meet.  Go to Graveyard of the Pacific for more information.
