Fort Stevens anniversary

Brad's folks just celebrated 40 years of marriage... WOW! We thought it would be fun to take them camping at Fort Stevens over the Sept. 11 weekend. We spent some time exploring on bikes:
Then, when we were eating lunch, Michael called and said he was flying to Astoria and would take people up in his plane... OK!!!
There happened to be a Coast Guard open house going on at the airport. So while Steve, Donna and Michael were cruising high above, Brad and I checked out the aircraft and such:
Then the coasties did an air evacuation demonstration. Super cool!
They're back! What a wonderful anniversary treat :)
We all hung out some more, enjoying the beautiful day at the beach. Duck launch fund raiser:
Eventually, Michael flew home and we headed back to camp, catching the end of the sunset on the beach:
Sunday, Brad forced me to go running on the beach. I was really proud of my run. I worked hard on the sand!
The weekend wrapped up with lunch at Camp 18:
Here's to 40 great years! :)
