Fun Along The Oregon Coast Line

John & Cindy thought we'd all enjoy taking a day trip up along the Oregon Coast line... It seemed like a great idea, so bright and early one morning, we were on the road .... The guys decided since we'd be taking two cars, we should have two way radios with us.... Bruce was in charge of the one in our car... What a riot he was... I never knew my husband could be so funny.... I'd try to explain all he said and did, but it would lose something in translation... Just know... he was one funny guy along the way.... at least for me anyway..... Ain't that right, Rubber Ducky!!


We sat my camera on the top of one of the cars for this shot.... Note all those pine trees behind us... I use to think we were running low on trees.... then we visited Oregon and I've since reconsidered my thinking .... I never seen so many trees in my life..... And a good thing to know is that when they clear an area of trees, they also replant!!! Now that's a GOOD THING!!!

The guys are using the hand under the chin method to appear more youthful .....

I don't know if it worked for them, but for sure it did for us ladies.....
Lots of beautiful scenery along the way...... It was hard to decide which to post .....

It was also a very chilly day ......







This Sitka Spruce was very interesting... Hope you take the time to read what the sign says about it.....


One of the trails we walked on....

Heading towards the Light House.....

There was a neat little gift shop inside the light house.... And this was going to be one of their good sale days... With it being so cold, most of us ended up buying ourselves some hooded jackets....









Getting a closer look at the beach area.....
Phil and Steve getting their feet wet....
But not Bruce....if he can help it that is.... Steve and Phil did manage to get him close to the water's edge so I could take their picture, when a wave washed in over his sneakers and that was enough for him.... Forget about getting his picture taken, he was heading back in land....
Val enjoying watching the sea gulls and kites.....

Observing from above.....

A couple of Beach Comers....


Another Light House out on the ocean....

Every where we turned there was another beautiful sight to behold..... And not soon forgotten!!!
