A warm fall day, an early trip to the beach to enjoy the sunshine. Gin & tonics to enjoy while we watched the waves!

Another walk on the beach, another beautiful find!

This rootball is far up on the beach and must have been here many years to be so weathered.

After several days of rain and a quick trip back to Bend for a few more necessities we were afforded a view of a beautiful rainbow.

The king tides have moved sand and drift wood all over the beaches. This well worn rock outcrop was exposed one day.

A beautiful sunset between cloud banks.

Lots of new places to explore! Great hiking nearby, in the forest or on the beach!

Mushrooms and moss in the little bit of old growth coastal forest left.

Sea Lions on the docks at the Newport historic bayfront. You can sometimes hear them barking all the way across the bay!
