Off Celebrating!

We've been gone for a few days, off to the Oregon Coast to celebrate our 47th anniversary. It's a bit of a distance to Newport, OR, from here, so we spent the first night in the Portland area. (Before we headed to the coast, we stopped at Twisted, a wonderful yarn shop and, of course, did not leave empty handed.) We spent two nights here at Little Creek Cove.  Our condo was on the left side.

The weather was absolutely perfect, and we were treated to two gorgeous sunsets.  As you can see, this beach has lots of sand which makes for interesting walking.

If we walked out far enough, we could see the Yaquina Head lighthouse in the distance.  Can you imagine living there?  The time passed all too quickly, just like these forty-seven years have done.  What a fun get away!

When we got back home, we played with our new solar powered garden lights but haven't quite decided where their permanent home will be.

We also picked a few roses.  They were late to bloom this year, but the wait has been well worth it.  Perfect timing, I'd say!
