Oregon Coast, Part one...

During my time on the Oregon Coast, I lucked out as far as weather.  Aside from a light mist/fog (that would routinely become heavy at night), it was great weather and very mild temperatures.  I made it to many (not all though, there's just so much to see!) of the places that were recommended to me by many of you.

Mario - Oswald and Ecola State Parks were both awesome.  Very scenic.  And the hike into Smuggler Cove was awesome too.

Cyndy - Drove by Cleawox Lake briefly!  Cool lake!  I contemplated renting a dune buggy to go drive around a lot of the dunes out there, but decided to keep moving.  Some day though!

Glen - Stayed in Brookings for a couple nights too...  I'll talk about that in a later post though.

Here are a few pics (click on them for bigger versions!) from the first part of the Oregon Coast drive!  Of course, more to come!

Stay shiny.
