Next stop: Cape Meares Lighthouse.

  • Only in the early morning sun do I look this tall.
  • Goodbye, Cannon Beach! I'm sure we'll meet again soon.
  • The one thing the Oregon Coast has that Washington doesn't? Sand. And lots of it.
  • I so much prefer this view of the ocean to that of the Atlantic (with the exception of Maine). A much more interesting landscape (in my very humble opinion) than just horizon and water (unless that's what you're into, of course).
  • Textbook example of a "drop off."
  • Next stop: Cape Meares Lighthouse.
  • As the shortest lighthouse on the coast, Cape Meares is just plain stubby!
  • The Cape Meares Lighthouse has a beautiful Fresnel lens, imported directly from Paris.

  • It's easy to see why this is called "The Octopus Tree."
  • Next stop: Cape Lookout, with its showy, sandy beach.
  • More rock arches off the coast of Cape Lookout.
  • Another yurt at Cape Lookout State Park.
  • Sunset at Cape Lookout.
  • This is my favorite lamp photo.
  • Hey, barnacle Bill...
  • I loved the color of the rocks of Cape Lookout. Lots of iron. They even smelled metallic.
  • A little lamp drama.
  • Rex enjoys a sunset skinny-dip. (It's okay--we were the only ones on the beach.)
  • Interesting pattern created by our hotel in Lincoln City.
