Our West Coast Vacation
































































We just returned form our weeklong vacation to the west coast. We had a great time (other than one really rainy day) traveling up the Coast from Eureka, California to a little past Newport, Oregon. We got to see the giant redwoods in northern California, tour a couple of lighthouses in Oregon, saw whales at Depoe Bay, seals at the Yaquina Head tide pools, deserted beaches at The Lost Coast south of Eureka and north of Brooking Harbor, and lots more in between. And we ate some great seafood along the way. We really loved the Oregon coast and plan to look for a condo to rent in a coming summer where we can just hang out and take a little more leisurely time to enjoy the beaches and the scenery. It really was spectacular. (Note to blog experts: If you can tell me how to label the individual pictures, I'll label them so you'll know what they were pictures of.)
