We have been driving up the coasts of Northern California, Oregon, and Washington and enjoying the cool weather near the Pacific Ocean. We have looked at numerous lighthouses and famous bridges. The scenery is fantastic but unfortunately the food is not. So we are very happy to have three days in a self-catering unit where we can cook.

The unit comes complete with a charcoal grill and it is lovely to be outside by the river and all the flowers.

We have one more night’s dinner so I think we will drive the 10 miles to the grocery store for some pasta, sauce, and red wine!
