Oregon Coast

We left Long Beach, heading south to the Oregon coast.  It was an overcast day but still beautiful.  When the sun came out it was gorgeous.  Our campsite was right across from the beach but we did not have a view.  Cape Kiwanda was a small resort area with a great beach.  The water was cold, very cold. There was a huge sand dune everyone was climbing up then running down. I tried to climb but hurt my knee in the process.  I could barely put weight on it for 24 hours but I pushed through it.  It still bothers me but no more than the left so I guess it is back to normal. The coast was beautiful.

 

the hill I injured my knee on it was a long walk back

Guy knew what I was going to do with this picture, still, he posed for it

 

for my wine drinking friends.  if you save the corks, the container in the left corner is a great way to show case them

the Oregon coast, so awesome
