Manzanita, Oregon
This past weekend, we drove down to Manzanita to spend time with Tom's brothers and their families. I love the long beaches and the pounding surf, although I got wet only up to my ankles. Here are pictures from a little trip we took up the highway to Oswald West park.
Family, with Max the dog. Those aren't sharks in the water. They're surfers. In wet suits. Promise.
Tom found a good place to sit and watch the surfers wipe out.

How beautiful. That should bring you some great inspiration for your writing.
It was lovely, Dawn. And yes, a little bit of writing.
I could live in Manzanita. It's truly one of my favorite places.
