JANTZEN BEACH (NO BEACH) RV PARK

 

After a long drive today, we finally reached our destination in Portland, Jentzen Beach. Kathe remembered staying here several year ago, but things have changed. This time the place is mostly mobile homes and not many spaces for traveling folks like us.  And there isn’t a beach, there never was one, but we used to be able to walk to the Columbia River last time we stayed here. 

Now, the access to the river is fenced off almost everywhere. Kathe and Jim walked for a long time and were never able to get near the water for a picture. At least they got some steps in tonight.

They decide to take the car, and they kept driving around and around and down toward the river. Blocked at every place they tried. Best thing you can say is that there are no homeless camps on the river here in Portland. They finally trespassed on someone’s lawn to take this picture almost at sunset.
