Buff’s brother and his family are moving to Maryland from Astoria, Oregon. Buff and I agreed to help out by flying there and then driving one of their cars the 3000 miles back, which we did last week. One of the perks of the trip was to get to see the Astoria area for the first time.
As someone who grew up fantasizing of having a grand adventure like The Goonies had, visiting Haystack Rock was probably the closest thing I’ve had to having a religious experience.
EDIT: Oh, and here is the photo gallery of our road trip.
That’s cool. But it looks like you’re taking a tinkle here.
That rocks! Damn that’s big.
Looks like the rock is coming out of the water to stomp your guts out for taking a leak in the ocean.
I keep expecting a pirate ship to sail out from behind the rock…
