Neighbor's Sheep

Couldn't pass up the opportunity to take a picture of my neighbor's sheep!

A New Life Bird For Me

My neighbors kept telling me about this Lazuli Bunting they could see just outside their door. Finally, I had to make a visit to see if I might get a look at it. It is certainly a beautiful bird!

Kate and Ryan

I took these pictures of Kate and her boyfriend Ryan before she recently headed back to college.










































































Ryan asked me to take a picture for him to turn in with his missionary papers as he is preparing to serve a 2 year mission for our church.

Bill and Becky's Anniversary, March 13...

Bill and I have made it a tradition to stay at Yachats Inn on our anniversary. In spite of the rain and cold, we always have a wonderful time!

Bill made us lots of hot drinks...




Driving south of Yachats...









The bridge at Cook's Chasm...

Can't resist pictures of those gulls and their knobby knees!























The rain's coming!!



It doesn't get much prettier than this.









Stopping at waysides and campgrounds, we saw these charming mail boxes...


Rain, rain, rain...however, it seemed to clear every time we wanted to get out of the car :)
