We were parked, hooked up, and ready for a walk by 1PM.
No wonder the resort was fully booked when we called earlier in the week. It was the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic, a surfing competition.
The beach was a hubbub of surfers, onlookers, vehicles, and vendors. And a might more crowded than when we first came here this past June.
But the scenery was still just as spectacular, with the remaining mist slowly disappearing. It was another gorgeous warm day at the Oregon coast. In September!
Amidst all the activity, a dory boat signaled its approach and landed right on the beach. They certainly move fast.
Even here at Cape Kiwanda there are quilt blocks on buildings.
