Pictures from our Weekend Road Trip

We took a 3-day weekend road trip down the Oregon Coast. We have some stories... and some pictures - but I'll start with some pictures.

This is, incredibly, the view out our hotel window in Yachats, OR. The weather wasn't really great for walking, but sure was fine for watching the waves crash up on the rocks, sending plumes high into the air.


More of the beautiful Oregon coast:

A real tourist attraction - SeaLion Cave - inside. (Well worth the price of admission, actually!)


The 'most photographed lighthouse on the west coast' - Heceta Head:


Looking south along the Oregon Coast from the lightkeeper's house at Heceta Head:

The lightkeeper's house - now a B&B at Heceta Head:

The bridge over Yaquina Bay, at the Yaquina Bay lighthouse in Newport.


The Yaquina Head lighthouse - where a bazillion Common Murras were fighting for just the right perch on the rocks just offshore, making quite a racket. (Yes, two lighthouses at Yaquina - 'Bay' and 'Head.')
