And Now, Coos Bay, Oregon

We left Lincoln City this morning and headed for Coos Bay, Oregon.  But, just outside of our room was a duck. 


 I’ve long heard about the Oregon ducks, but I thought they might be a little more lively than this one. LOL.  

The coast of Oregon is both rugged and rocky,




and has long stretches of beautiful but mostly deserted sandy beaches. 





The Great Sand Dune National Park is a very interesting area.



 The massive sand dune hills go on for miles and are one of the largest stretches of sand In the world, second only to the Sahara Desert.  




Dune Buggies (both store bought and homemade) are a favorite sport racing up and down the hills of sand.

As we drove along, we were constantly reminded about Tsunami areas, 

just hope this is not information we will need.  

Tonight, we are staying in a funky little road side motel.  



The outside of the buildings are painted with nautical themes.  




Like I said, it’s kinda funky, but I kinda like it.  



This little boat along side the road next to the motel seems to have met the same fate as the airplane in the last blog!

Tomorrow we are off to Gold Beach for a couple of nights in a motel to prepare for our company to join us at our rental house on Tuesday.
