Bikes + Sand + Smores = Kid Bliss

Fort Stevens State Park in Oregon is a place for kid bliss.  Great beaches (which mean sand castles and kites in Oregon, not swimming), safe biking trails, camp fires, smores and the freedom to get and stay d-i-r-t-y.  This year we got another great cabin, stayed for 5 nights, and overlapped our trip with 6 other moms I know + their kids ranging in ages from 3-14.  (Three dads were able to make it each for short stays, Mike came for Friday - Sunday.)  Second year running and it ranks as one of the best vacation stops ever (you know, on the Stephanie Charts).  The hardest part is packing, and I have a list for that, if you want it just ask.

this is what grown ups do on the Oregon coast = sit in warm sand
