Yaquina Light Monday

Updates

  • Elaine found turtlenecks at Fred Meyers, an all-in-one superstore chain that I have only seen in the Pacific Northwest.: Also bought another corkscrew to replace the Chinese piece of crap that I bought the other day. This one is also Chinese and isn’t very good, but a least it works.
  • For those who asked about cameras: Most pictures are taken by me with a Canon G7X Mark II. Pictures by Elaine are with her Sony Cybershot DSC-W830. Occasionally there might be a picture taken with my Moto 4 phone.
  • For those who asked about Tidal Raves: I have no info on why they are selling the place – probably to retire. Will try to find out more on subsequent visit.

We did our separate morning walks – Elaine goes earlier and walks faster. I go later and walk slower. I took random pics along my walk into town and back.

So, it’s Monday and the sun is out. It wouldn’t be a visit to Depoe Bay without a visit to Yaquina Light in the Yaquina Head Outstanding Beauty Area (run by the U. S. Bureau of Land Management. Our Lifetime National Park pass gains admission without the $7 fee, We hiked up Salal Hill Trail to the top and then had our picnic lunch on our favorite bench. I’ll let the link above and the pictures below tell the story.

Cocktails on the balcony were under cloudy skies with roaring waves. No boats of any kind were out today – seas too rough. The Coast Guard was out at night with their boats and helicopter doing training. Dinner was at home: delicious meatloaf with baked potato and salad. Yum.

  1. Okay Elaine, all is right with the world, you have your turtleneck!!!! Never bored with pics of the cliffs and ocean. Take care you two, Cindy

  2. That’s such a great location, love the kitchen and family room overlooking the Pacific! We had such storms last night, unbelievable amount of rain and thunder!! Not a monsoon, it was the remnants of Tropical storm Karen.
