The Coast of Oregon

 After a three day stay in Seattle we are on the move again.  We started out in bright sunshine and the farther south we drove, the fogger it became.  


It was never a problem, just there.  Finally the sun broke through again. Tom predicted 10:00am and sure enough that was precisely when it happened!  Psychic?  

There’s a lot of agriculture going on in Oregon.  There’s the logging industry,





 grapes—wine, 


walnuts, hazelnuts and blueberries. 




I took a picture of downtown Portland, but that was as close as we came. 


 Unfortunately, it seems Portland is still having some problems, hopefully they will be resolved soon for the sake of everyone.  
As we drove through McMinnville, Oregon we passed by the bankrupt headquarters of Evergreen International Airline.



Then we saw something unusual. I’m no airline expert, but I would say if this is an example of their proficiency at landing a plane it’s no wonder they went bankrupt.


Finally, we arrived in Lincoln City, Oregon.  



We drove to the beach just to check it out—beautiful, but very chilly!  



One night here then on to Coos Bay.  Got clams?
