We stopped in North Bend, Or to see my aunt Diana and uncle Rob and cousin Kurt.  We talked for a while and played a few computer games and called it a night.  Their kitchen was being remodeled so they had their camper in the driveway to cook in.  Reilly, Justin and I slept in the camper and Matt took the van.  The next day Kurt had the day off for some reason.  He took us up to see a wrecked ship in the area.  We found the tour place couldn't take us there and then couldn't find it on the beach either, but it was a good walk.  Matt and Justin found an old rusty piece of a ship and decided to stand on it and watch the waves crash around it.  A huge wave came up and soaked them.  Justin tried to escape but the water was a lot deeper than expected and he fell all the way in.  He started getting washed out to sea but managed to get out alive.  We also found a place that rented dune buggies.  We had to.  It was a whole lot of fun.  Matt shroyer turned a corner to fast that turned out to be a dead end and flew over the hill and rolled into the woods.  It was about 25 feet down on a slope that was about 70 degrees.   He didn't get hurt but did have to get towed out by the owner of the buggies.   We stayed one more night in North Bend and left for crater lake.
