It's been a spell since the wife and I have found some time for an actual vacation. On the heels of the untimely and tragic death of 'Kiwi' a.k.a. Nicole "Jak" Jackman and the inevitable decline of Razor Thin Studios (not going away but redirecting (again)), life has been somewhat of a whirlwind.
So, to the amazing coast of Oregon we went. I want to share a few 'very nonprofessional photos' with you and tell you that if you ever have the opportunity to ride along and stay along the coast of Oregon, you should. The views are spectacular and the ocean air is nothing short of soothing. If you are a beach traditionalist, you know - the crowds, sand and posers then you will be disappointed. The Oregon cost does offer "beaches" but it offers mostly history, breathtaking views and serenity.
Cannon Beach was our primary stomping grounds. It is quaint "town" close to Ecola State Park which is a fascinating and spectacular attraction all on its own. Off the coast you will see the most amazon lighthouse ever (in my opinion), Tillamook Lighthouse. I would love to spend a few hours out there, the solitude and soul-searching one could do is so inviting. There are no tours there, or overnight stays but what a site!
Alas - the time away is so fleeting and before you know it you are back where you started … waiting for the hours, days and months to tick away for the next opportunity. The wife and I have agreed that we will make the time for some "short getaways" to reset and enjoy one another's company. We do so enjoy each others company regardless of where we are at but those 'away' times just make it that much more special (I am sure most of you would agree).
Until then - back at it.
Tick ... tick ... tick.
