Trip South

We are on our way to spend Thanksgiving with all of our girls! This is the trip down on our way to sunny (?) California.

To Be or Not To Be, That is the Weather.

Or is that whether or not? Lots of variety in the weather today.

Why I Live in Oregon

Went for a drive with Jay today and took over 80 pictures. I hate that because it makes it hard to just pick one! We stopped at viewpoints and went all the way to Devil's Elbow. Here are just a few. When we got to the beach we were told to stay away from the dying seals as they were carrying a disease that could be harmful to people and dogs. Jay fed the seagulls so I could snap a few. And the seagulls like their picure taken. I take out my camera and they pose! At one viewpoint we were way above the ocean and there were hundreds of seals on the beach. groups of them would lay still at the edge of the water and then they would all leap in the water and swim out to sea. Then the next group would do the same. I don't have a zoom lens so I didn't get very good seal pictures. They are the little things that look like rocks on the beach and eels in the water.

New Wheels

Just in case family want to see Rusty's new wheels!

Weekend at the Lake

Jay & I took lots of pictures but I had to save a few here.

Sunset in October

October produces beautiful awe inspiring sunsets and I can't resist!

Up/Down

Walking on the bike path with Jeannette, I see this if I look up and this if I look down. I would show you what I see when I look across but Jay doesn't like her picture taken!

When You Can't Decide

Beautiful sky tonight. I can't do it justice!

AFTERMATH

I missed the sun setting but I caught the aftermath!

100 Miles North on a Sunday

Today we had to drive to Neskoen to fix a Corian sink that a lady had dropped a flaming iron skillet into. Why did we have to do that? Well, because 9 years ago we did the cabinets, countertops and sink for her and we service what we sell!

Anyway, these are pictures of a day that started out foggy when we crossed over the bridge in Yachats, but got sunnier and sunnier as the day progressed. We drove through Depoe Bay where Jack Nicholson took his fellow inmates on a mad ride from that very calm bay, under that bridge and out to that crashing ocean in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" years ago. Next door to the job we went to, these huge wooden Birds were perched on giant tree stumps. On the way home we passed what must have been a kite event. We stopped to snap a few pictures. Can you see the bubbles floating in the air, too? One picture of a bird, a rock and an ocean and other snaps including a couple of Orygon Home Boy. A long but nice day!
