What I Did On My Summer Vacation, Chapter Two

If you can’t see the photos, go herecabinart.net/blogAfter our three days of work, we went to the beach. (Because I am involving other people in these posts, I am keeping their faces small and leaving out names in order to use good World Wide Web etiquette.)

Oregon was so beautiful that I did not even attempt to knit on the drive. Instead, I was a sight-seer who took these photos from the back seat. The only unfortunate part about sitting there was that the window was tinted. Otherwise, I was perfectly content to be a passenger after driving 800 miles a few days prior.

The beach was beautiful, of course. I hadn’t seen the ocean since October of 2019 and could have happily spent hours (possibly days) walking along the edge, sitting in the sand, listening to the sounds, absorbing all the blues and greens.

Since my sister and I had our mom with us, “long walk” was redefined and no one sat in the sand, but we all were very happy to be there.

That might have been the “vacation” day. The next day of the trip involved farm labor.

    • Tom and Linda, thank you!

  2. I love Oregon! I love the green! I love the rain! I love the Oregon coast! Where were you, exactly?

    • I was in Salem, Dallas, and Lincoln City.

      • Ooo, Lincoln City! I stayed at the Inn at Spanish Head several times–right on the beach. A member of my high school graduating class is the mayor of Lincoln City (and a big Oregon Duck fan, of course)! I’m glad the weather was nice. That’s not always the case in Oregon, dontcha know!

        • Sharon, I have experienced 100+ in Oregon in June, in July, and in August (all different years). This visit was just pure pleasure.
