This
is Cannon Beach, the first stop. My god. This is an
absolutely brilliant picture. Have you ever been here? No?
Drop whatever you are doing, and go. Now. What? You live
on the East Coast? SO? Go. NOW! But if you
do go to the coast, don't believe the signs that say 'Moe's
Cafe'. It does not exist. the bastards LIED! Moe, what
would Homer Say??
I
love this picture. This was my first trip to the coast
since I moved here. Or at all.

| Again,
Cannon Beach. Or Ecola Park. I don't remember. But in any
case, Beautiful. I wandered down to the beach to get
closer look at the water, and it was friggin' freezing!
And of course, while I was busy gawking at the scenery,
the waves came in and got my feet all wet. Did I mention
the water was cold? |

I
have no idea exactly where this picture was taken. But
guaranteed, it was in Oregon. :) That little spec on the
cliff is a lighthouse. Oh, actually, I do know
where this was. This is looking out from the parking lot
of the Sea Lions place.
OOH!!!!
Update! This is Haceta Head!
Some
people are too damn smart. ;)

| Speaking
of sea lions, that is what is on this picture. Sorta. If
you look really close, really really close, and use
enourmous amounts of imagination, you can see hundreds of
the little wet buggers congregated on the big rock in the
center of the picture. They were not very active. Dammit. |

So,
here is the part of the sand dunes along a section of the
Oregon Coast. When I heard about them, I was thinking
along the lines of Sahara type dunes, so I was a little
dissapointed. But, they were rather big, and stretched
out for quite a ways. And it was fun stomping all
over them. Hee Hee!

coast sunset. This picture was taken from the sand dunes.
These sand dunes are slowing creeping into civilization,
and the local yokels are all pissed off about it. So, we
did our part, and trampled as many as we could. Which was
quite a bit. Oh yeah! Went down to the beach to
play in the water and wet sand, and there was someone
else there, and he was pulling this huge tree branch all
the way across the beach. This thing was 6 feet long. Uh,
Why?? The wood was soaked, decaying, and generally
worthless. Funny, but I guess it made sense to him. I
hope.

These are the
poor houses that are threatened by mean old nature. Poor
humans, can't they sprawl where ever they feel like it
without some natural element endangering them? What nerve!
These dunes must be stopped to protect the
chhiiiillllllddddrrrruuuuuunnnnnn! Go dunes! Yeah! Wipe 'em
out! Sweeeet....

| Oh,
and since the sunset was so damn cool, I added another
picture of it. Got a problem with that, homey?? Yeah, I
thought not! Make sure you check this out by
clicking on it. This small size does not do it justice.
