I'm posting this.

This is meant as an ongoing thread. Are you somewhere cool? Seeing a sunset? Stuck in traffic or at a Mariners game?

I am currently camped out on the Bayocean peninsula near Tillamook, Oregon. It is one of the few places you can backpack on the Oregon coast, and I am "wasting it" by camping 1.3 miles from my car.

Hey, it is a long drive from Lynnwood, I will move camp down the peninsula for Monday and Tuesday nights. Nice thing: plenty of cell service, so I can watch Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks tonight. Another nice thing: it's free!

I am using a jogging stroller to haul the 80 pounds of comfort camping stuff I brought. Real food, and plenty of ice for my tequila and ginger ale.

You need to unplug, my friend.

I don't have that problem when out and about b/c I refuse to get a smartphone. Just my 2 cents.

Supervising the cat while he’s outside so that the coyotes don’t get him as dinner. It is hard work herding cats.

I don't have a smart phone either. But I take my tablet when comfort camping.

At the Space Needle with a friend from Florida.

The new glass floor is kinda scary at first.

I may not have anyone rocking my world right now but, I don't have anyone messing it up either.
