Honeyman State Park

For Spring break we went camping to Honeyman State Park just out of Florence Oregon where there are miles and miles of sand dunes to go 4-wheeling. We got to try out our humongous new tent we got last year. We were brave, I think, camping in tents in Oregon in March. The first 2 days were actually pretty good. A little chilly, but you can handle that.

I LOVE this picture! Gunner Loves his Dad!
When we weren't out riding we spent most of our time sitting around the campfire, or playing at the play structure.

Just a glimpse of the awesome dunes! So much fun!
If Gunner had his way he would have been on the 4-wheeler the whole time. They are showing off their new helmets, unfortunetly their new goggles and my new helmet and goggles arrived two days after we left. We had problems with the seller (on ebay) and in the end it was okay because we still got the helmets, but they refunded us part of the money.
The 2nd night it poured ALL NIGHT LONG and kept raining when we woke up! We ate breakfast in our tent, then Ian took the kids to watch a movie in the truck while Cooper and I had a nap in the tent. There were starting to be little puddles in our tent.

So instead of being cooped up in the tent all day, we decided to go for a drive up the coast. Gorgeous! I had never been down that far south. Then we had to toss a coin to see who got to sit up front.
Can you tell who the winner was?
While we were on the drive, Ian's dad called and said we were leaving. They had a river under their tent. We went with 3 families that all had trailers, and we pulled some of their 4-wheelers, and felt bad that we took them, but I don't think they blamed us for leaving. If it had rained and then let up we could have stayed, but it was not going anywhere. Here are a few clips of riding.
