Today we headed for the Pacific Coast and actually got a campsite on the beach at Tillicum Beach not long after lunch. On the way to the beach we hit another wonderful roadside cafe in Elkton called Arlene's Cafe. The breakfast was great. The owners were from Murphy, NC.

After setting up camp we headed back down the coast in the truck to get some photos. Later that night we sat around a fire made from NC wood I have hauled for 4,000 miles so I can have a campfire. Laurie cut up some apples and added butter, sugar and cinnamon wrapped in aluminum foil. We cooked them over the fire and they were so good, words can not describe the feeling (grin).
