Kit and Carol on the Road

Like Lewis and Clark we have at last reached the Pacific Ocean and a place to rest. We decide to stay here two days. There are no hookup sites available but we end up in a spot just a few steps from Benson beach. (for those who don’t know—Benson is my maiden name). It’s a long walk to the museum so we get in a hike, a walk on the beach AND a visit to a premier L&C exhibit. The next day we hike up to the lighthouse. Hiking up the trail we see 1 small mouse, 2 garter snakes, 3 banana slugs, hundreds of small brown frogs, and millions of mosquitoes. The mosquitoes are “numerous and vexom” but we get some bug spray and survive the onslaught. We had no disappointment in Cape Disappointment—almost.
