an interesting historical park is near Astoria the place where Lewis and Clark spent a winter. it is a national park Lewis and Clark National Historical Park, Fort Clatsop National Memorial ... located approximately 5 miles south of Astoria, Oregon. ... www.nps.gov/focl/
most state parks in Oregon have great camping facilities.. including Yurts, and tipis and even old covered wagons for overnight stays...www.oregon.gov/OPRD/PARKS/index.shtml http://www.oregonstateparks.org/searchpark.php
if you go down the coast of washington and into Oregon via the bridge by astoria it is a pretty (if not very fast) way to go.
another orgeon tourist trap is the cheese factory in Tillamook. better yet is the smaller one just south of there--Blue Heron where you will find cheese mustard, wine, and other goodies.
