Finally Getting There & Tillamook Cheese Factory

So we FINALLY got to Netarts Bay.
We were so excited to get there and to be with family.
We found everyone and then decided to go and unload our car.
Well, it was a bit more difficult than planned..the skybox
would NOT open.  And every uncle of mine (plus Jake)
can tell you that haha.

They tried EVERYTHING to get it open!
But we ended up driving to Tillamook that night to get
the right tools to pop out the rivets and open it.
We just felt sick breaking into the box because we'd
borrowed it from our neighbors.  Let's just say I'm
grateful for lifetime warranties...
cause long story short, we got a new box on the way home
to replace the broken one.  Thanks again for letting
us borrow your box Somsens...(even though we broke it)
but we hope you like your new box, haha.

Saturday morning, we checked out the beach.

There was a stream coming out of the hills to the ocean,
and a huge tree over it.  Those without water shoes
used it to cross.  I've dubbed this: Uncle Todd's tree...teehee.
Let's just say that earlier that morning he had quite 
the adventure crossing the stream ;)

This was the view that afternoon from the deck of our town-home.
We would gather to eat and play at the last house on the left
side of the street. (the brown one with the chimney)
There was a big backyard where we played ladder-ball then
we also got to the beach from there.

That afternoon we drove back to Tillamook to check out
the Tillamook Cheese Factory.

Can you say FREE SAMPLES!!!!
Oh they were gooood :)

They had windows where you could see the workers
cutting and packaging the cheese.

Here's Aunt Lois and Grandma watching the process

We found a funky van

As I was taking the picture, a lady came up and said
"You get in picture too!" (i think she was chinese,
and her accent was really thick)...so we all piled
in for a photo haha.
