Are the whales at depot bay yet for whale watching?

Should be, or soon. My son went up north a couple of weeks ago and saw them.

If you are beer folks, it is worth the drive to Rogue Brewing in Newport. Very good food in the restaurant, and lots of good beers. I wish they had a bunkhouse attached to the brewery, because there's lots of good beers. Recommend a sampler flight. Did I say there's lots of good beers?

Never met a beer I didn’t like, some I’ve liked more than others.

Rogue is proud of their beers, a pint is pricey. But if I were to list the categories of beers that I drink (and it is a pretty full list), Rogue would occupy most of the top spots. Get it on occasion here in NM, but not near often enough.

We're pretty fond of pacific city, pelican pub and cape Kiwanda. If you're south to Newport the aquarium and marine science center is worth a visit.

Luna Sea Fish House in Seal Rock. A bit of a drive but totally worth it. Lincoln City is kinda cool, but can be crowded.

If you are into aviation, space, or history, the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum in McMinnville is well worth the short drive. The Spruce Goose is there along with two huge buildings full of exhibits.

we are visiting my brother who is going to be moving from AK to OR for an aviation job. He is not relocating to tillamook but I think maybe us visiting was an excuse to visit the area and the museums.

If you like hiking I would recommend hiking out to the end of Cape Lookout. It's a couple miles but very spectacular views. Often whales swim by right below you if you are out on the end.

We got back to the Driftless Area from Oregon yesterday evening. Travel to and from went well with no major hiccups. Our stay was only 4 days but we were able to pack in a bunch of activities in the Tillamook area. The weather was not great, but standard for Oregon coast weather. It did not stop the kids from swimming in the Ocean.

Thank you to all who offered suggestions on things to do and see. It was a good trip and we are looking forward to visiting Oregon again.
