My wife and I (and our two youngest children ages 7 and 10) will soon
be going to Portland, Oregon to take our oldest son to college.  Since
I have some business in San Francisco shortly after we plan to drive
from Portland to San Francisco.  We understand that the coastal highway
in Oregon is quite nice.  We would like to camp at one of the state parks
there, perhaps on the beach.  We would appreciate any advice about what
would be an especially attractive (or fun or interesting, etc.) place to
spend a night or two.  We would also appreciate recommendations of things
to see or do in Portland, especially things that might interest the two
young ones.  We could use some advice about Northern California as well.
I am fairly familiar with the Bay area, but know nothing about further 
north.  The bird sanctuary mentioned in an earlier posting to this net
sounds interesting and is in fact what prompted this query.

Thanks,

Jim Potter jp@lanl.arpa
