Ian and my 2 year anniversary is coming up on August first. We're going to spend it in Lincoln City on the coast. We looked at bed and breakfasts and found them adorable, but too pricey for our taste. We didn't have any luck finding hostels, so we've decided on camping. We're going to invest the money we would have spent on lodging on a test and sleeping bags. I've already found some great deals on Amazon. I'm excited. Ian and I never like to spend much on where we're staying. Better to spend it on doing fun things.
I'm thinking Devil's Lake State Park. But, if anyone has experience with camping in that area, let me know. Also, I've never purchased camping gear for myself before. The only brand I'm really familiar with is Coleman. So, any feedback there would be rad, as well.
Lincoln City has a lot to do: whale watching, beach, hiking, wine tasting, micro breweries, glass blowing and art galleries galore. It should be a blast, and it's only a little over 2 hours away.
I'm going to keep this short, because I am sleepy. It turns out that there's really no chance of me getting the fourth off or even out early, so I'm feeling dejected. Tomorrow's post will include a revised draft of the short story, though; I'm going to make sure that happens.
Good night!
