Oregon Coast Day 3: Blimp Hangar, Sand Car, BIRTHDAY

Ivan and Terry came out to the coast to help celebrate Anton’s birthday. We started by going out to look at the old WWII blimp hangar, now turned air museum, in Tillamook. We didn’t actually go in it though, we just wanted to see the immense size of the building: 1,072 feet long, 296 feet, giving it over 6 acres of area inside (you could play 6 football games at once); and 192 feet tall.

After some good times with a flat tire, we went to the beach. Building another fort for Magnus somehow turned into a sand car with Elina inside.

We also had a nice walk. Magnus found this sand hill and wanted to climb it.

Dana and Magnus climbed up onto a ledge on the cliff with a very nice view. You can even see a little Ruth, Elina, and Anton out by the water.

And we ended the day with a birthday cake for Anton. Happy Birthday, Anton!
