Tillamook Cheese and a Nice Salmon

Today we moved further south to The Siletz River. As we were backing into our site this 26 lb. Chinook was brought in from the river. This is a native as are the Silvers here in this river. What a beauty!

We couldn't pass through Tillamook without a visit to the cheese factory.

The free samples are a popular part of the tour.

Even though the tour and samples are free everyone spends a good deal in their store, as did we.

Workers slice up 40 lb. aged blocks into smaller retail sizes.
