Nehalem Bay State Park
Just off of Highway 101 in the tiny little town of Nehalem is nestled Nehalem Bay State Park. The park sits on 900 acres of land that was transferred to the State of Oregon from Tillamook County in the 1930s. The park sat stagnant until a flurry of activity in the 1940s and 1950s, when thousands upon thousands of European beach grass, shore pine, and Scotch broom meant to strengthen and stabilize the dunes were planted. After over two decades of hard work, the plants had taken root and fulfilled their intended purpose. Nehalem Bay State Park opened to the public in 1972. Hiking, biking, and equestrian trails weave throughout the park, and an airstrip invites pilots to drop in and camp for the evening. Fishing, crabbing, kayaking, and beachcombing are among the favorite activites at Nehalem Bay State Park. In addition to the RV and tent sites, there is also an equestrian camp, an airstrip camp, hiker/biker campsites, and yurts available. Once inside the campground, the beach is easily accessible through a small hike over the dunes that separate Nehalem Bay State Park from the Pacific Ocean. The wildlife includes bears, elk, deer, and mountain lions. The deer and elk will often graze inside the campground, allowing one the opportunity to watch them in a close-up setting.

Deep Well Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze
All photos were taken by Jessie Lynn Nelson from JLN Photography Making Memories As A Family Is A Huge Deal In My House I know I write a LOT about my family ootings (ooo-tings is the only correct pronunciation for 'Outing' anymore since we watched the anime Spy Family on Crunchy Roll). We don't get to do them often but when we do, we usually launch into our ooting at full energy. We take it seriously for many reasons, and each of them is trauma-related to our own childhoods.
