October 28-29, 2018 Florence, Oregon

We finished at Oregon Motorcoach. The bus should be good for a year.  We drove down to Florence, Oregon, which is just west of Eugene and on the coast. It was supposed to rain all day, but the sun came out and was nice on the way down. 50's, windy and cloudy.

A more Oregon looking forecast. Rain everyday. There is a drought and it has been sunny and dry until this week.  The drive on the way down with mossy fall colored big leafed maple. I think I take a photo of this section every time we come this way. 

The bus in our campsite at Harbor Vista county park. Snugged into the vegetation. It will be nice to camp where there is not a big bright parking lot light. We went down to the beach. About the time we got there the fog rolled in. John's camo jacket blends right in and he is invisible. 

The waves on the jetty and the beach.

Sanderlings running their little legs off on the beach. The next day it was predicted to rain hard and be in the 50's. A miracle happened and it was sunny and in the 50's. This is the harbor by the campground at low tide.

More at low tide. A cool rock and John under the dragon looking dead tree.  

During low late afternoon light we went to the beach. Where there are northwest  ugly clams and Gaper clams. Siuslaw North Jetty, deadly waves at anytime, Loose slippery rocks and patterns in the sand. Reflected sea gull in the parking lot. 

This dune looks like John's hair! Reflections of the end of the rain clouds on the beach.

Waves and more reflections on the beach. 

Sanderlings running along the waves. This nice lady took our photo. 

The nice lady wanted some photos of herself in this yoga pose.  Sunset on the high clouds.

Sunset on the high clouds.and John got this photo of me right before I tried to jump it.
