Tuesday was for Watching the Ocean – Rough Seas

Time to start winding down.  Wednesday is our last full day in Depoe Bay.  On Thursday we drive to Portland (three hours) for a late afternoon flight home to PHX.

Tuesday was sunny – rainy – thunderstorm – sunny – etc.  It was sunny at 7 AM so we did our normal walk into town.  We were rewarded with a beautiful rainbow (faintly double).  We got rained on as we walked back, so we ducked into the Pirate Coffee Company for hot chocolate and scones.  We hung around the condo the rest of the morning.  I was finishing up the latest (and next to last?) Sue Grafton novel, Y is for Yesterday.  Elaine worked on a jigsaw puzzle.  The weather continued to switch between sun and rain.  No fishing or whale watch boats out today – too rough.  Here are some pics of the rainbow and a video of today’s pounding surf taken from the condo balcony..

It cleared up nicely around noon (contrary to all predictions), so we took the short drives to Boiler Bay, Otter Creek, and Cape Foulweather for picture taking of the wave action.  Here are LOTS of pics and videos of the ocean in action.  “The seas were angry that day, my friends” – George Costanza

  1. One of my favorite things to do Joe is watching the ocean. Really enjoyed the “angry wave” pics. Safe travels tomorrow. XO

  2. Like Cindy, we also love watching the waves. Your views there are spectacular. Here in Rye, we are also having great crashing waves with the passing of Hurricane Jose.

    Sorry your trip is coming to an end, but it was wonderful. I’ll have to find something else to read with my morning coffee. Where are you going next, and when?
