The South Oregon Coast

We made it to the Oregon coast - it is beautiful but cool - today's high was 64, yesterday was in the 80s - what a change.

The coastline is very rugged with lots of rock and not as much beach as the East coast. The rocks are very neat and the waves crash against them in spectacular fashion. There are little towns all along Rt. 101. We stopped for pictures at various places including 3 lighthouses and we waited for a glorious sunset. We also ran into a bunch of ATV funactics - there is a Dune Fest starting tomorrow that is basically ATV races for everyone - men, women, and kids. There is a park full of all kinds of campers, tents, and ATV vehicles. A took a few pics of them from a lookout point above them. It goes to show that rednecks are not geographically bound to VA and the east coast. :):):) It's a joke, ok?!

For tomorrow, we plan on exploring more of the coast --
dune buggy rides, whale watching, beach walking, etc.
