Saturday Salmon Bake

Yet another beautiful weather day!  Today the car did not move, and we had a singular purpose: the 62nd Annual Depoe Bay Indian Salmon Bake.  We walked into town and down to the town park where the Salmon Bake was held from 10 AM through 5 PM.  We got there about 11:15, a good time as there was no line.  When we left the line was long.  The salmon is cooked on stakes over an open flame fire line in the style of Indians (Native Americans).  It’s served with cole slaw, toast, soda, and a cookie.  The salmon is delicious.

After the bake we walked around the harbor (self proclaimed as the world’s smallest harbor) and chatted up some fishermen and then journeyed into the newly reopened Spouting Horn, now a craft brewery and restaurant.  We had a couple of drafts and talked with three girls from Texas who are staying right next to us at the Village at North Pointe.

Then we walked home for a nice nap.  Snapped some pictures as we walked.  After the big salmon meal, tonight’s dinner will be just cocktails and cheese and crackers.  Be back at you tomorrow when the rains are supposed to arrive.

  1. What glorious weather, lovely walk home. What a hoot…SEAHAWKS??? Do you get a morning NFL game there? Lousy cardinals here, someone needs to be fired!

  2. Nice new chair Joe! Love that salmon and the way they cook it. I bet it was just the best as it has been the other times too. Is Elaine going to watch any games today? Broncos are doing great, no losses yet, even in preseason. How is the Tillamook ice cream holding up? Love, Cindy
