[Stacia] - We traversed nearly the whole state of Oregon today, climbing through the mountain pass by Ashland and then down and on through the central corridor. This state park, Champoeg, is nearly at Portland so we'll have a relatively short trip home tomorrow. That was part of the plan! Despite the many miles, we made good time today and arrived well before dark. Hooray! Tynor says this is the "perfect" state park - maybe because we have hookups once again? :-) He says he can tell we're back in Oregon again, too. Just a step up from the California state parks we stayed at.
We set up the popup with the canopy since it was actually a little drizzly (for the first time on this trip), and by dinnertime, we were glad to have the shelter. We started off having dinner at the picnic table but the little guys finished up eating at the folding table under shelter. Cory was a big help with the dishes!
Tynor got a fire going early on so we could have one last round of S'Mores for this trip. The fire survived the drizzle and small bouts of rain, and everyone was happy to have a final yummy treat before we called it a night.
We dragged our boots and raingear all the way down the coast and back up, and finally got to 
use them!
We saw these rental campers all over on our trip. I had no idea that the idea of rental campers had seized the public imagination so deeply. Most of them were this CruiseAmerica company, but there were a couple of other oddballs that we came across as well. I'm sure it's nice to just get the camper for when you need it, but I don't think I'd like being a driving advertisement for the company the whole time we were out.
Tomorrow we head for Washington and HOME!
