The summer sun is beginning to wind down and those cool winter days will soon be upon us, so this weekend is a great time to get in one last summer season visit to the beach. Two of my favorite things (the beach and cars) are being paired up this weekend as two major coastal towns are holding similar festivities; Rod Run to the End of the World in Long Beach, WA and Seaside Wheels N Waves Car Show in Seaside, OR. These events feature classic cars, food, live entertainment, and most activities are free and open to the public.

Rod Run to the End of the World

For nearly 3 decades, Long Beach, WA has provided approximately 1,000 classic cars (each year) with a platform to showcase their style at the Rod Run to the End of the World. This event takes place September 10th and September 11th, with the cruise of the peninsula on Saturday from 4pm to 6pm. "The important to budget travel is to prepare ahead. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new places we have never been before, the fact of expense and budgeting is generally in the back of our thoughts. Organizing and spending our travel budget carefully is a priority for most families. Reducing spending and charges, while still enjoying your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed achievement and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought regarding protecting money while journeying is simple: Even if your personal finances is extremely tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also remembering that while traveling, regardless of whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel bill!..". The cruise travels from Ocean Park, WA down to Ilwaco, WA and roadway travel is not recommended during this time.

Seaside Wheels N Waves Car Show

Since 1998, Seaside, OR has hosted the Seaside Wheels N Waves Car Show. An event where car enthusiasts from near and far travel to this popular coastal town and watch as around 400 classic cars take to the streets and show off their exquisite appearances. This event runs from September 8th through September 11th. Vehicles will be on display on Broadway (& adjacent streets) as well as at the Convention Center on Friday and Saturday. The cruise will be traveling down Broadway on Saturday from 4pm to 5pm.

Both Long Beach, WA and Seaside, OR feature plenty of hotel accommodations throughout their towns, but be advised it may be difficult to find a room (especially at a reasonable rate) this close to the event. For many people who live in or around the Portland, OR area, driving to one or both of these beaches makes for a great day trip and an affordable activity the whole family is sure to enjoy!
