(CAPE MEARS) - Cape Meares State Scenic Viewpoint, one of the busiest day-use state parks on the north Oregon coast, will be closed Monday through Wednesday while contractors pave its parking area.

An expansion project has restricted parking in the park since Sept. 18th.

Those restrictions are expected to continue until mid-November.

Cape Meares State Scenic Viewpoint is 10 miles west of Tillamook off the Three Capes Scenic Loop.

Managed by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, the park provides facilities for wildlife viewing and services for visitors to the Cape Meares Lighthouse.

That is really strange, it is now showing up at this end too. I think it is a simple mistake, because I know specifically that there was not an audio link on the story, and now I clearly see that it gives every indication that there is one. Again, our apologies, I'll try to figure out how to straighten that out.

It's on the front page, and there is an audio thing below the story.

Where is the audio button that you mentioned? We did not have an audio track on this story, very sorry for any confusion.

There's an audio button here but no audio???
