There were roosters crooning to the slow lightening of the sky and the we are able to the business more clearly. Watching the sun come up, the farm life beckoned through the fogged up windows characteristic of sleeping in the back of your vehicle. We woke up in the morning, but not too early. We changed into pajamas and settled in for the night having stopped to use the bathroom before getting here. A Sprinter parked next to us later, another set of weary and frugal travelers. Pulling into their lot just down the road, we joined a large RV for the night. After consulting the app and not feeling too comfortable in the Tillamook Cheese Factory parking lot, we opted to boondock at the Blue Heron Cheese Company. If you click through to the Search page on the website, you will find a link to the iPhone app so you can take the information with you on the road. It was dark by the time we got to the home of cheese, and my friend Denise takes out her phone and pulls up the app Boondocking. We left Seaside with sights on Tillamook, if only because it was the largest town before Newport. We didn’t have a plan other than to get as far as we could driving south down Highway 101 until we ran out of daylight. One of the most memorable stops was Boondocking at the Blue Heron Cheese Company! I wrote about some hikes my friend Denise and I did on a short road trip to the Oregon Coast in December like the Sand Dunes, Cape Kiwanda and Drift Creek, but I haven’t shared too much about our road trip itself.
