Emily and I have been touring the lighthouses and harbors along Highway 101 from Florence (OR) down to the Redwoods. The whole southern coast of Oregon so far has been gorgeous. I’m racking up the pictures with a few adventures along the way. Most recent was the (temporary) death of our car battery at Cape Blanco, which I discovered at sundown after photographing the lighthouse against the sunset. You can’t imagine a more dark and desolate (and beautiful) setting with just a lighthouse for company. Luckily, I joined AAA literally 5 minutes before we left so we got a jump for free.
And I beat a challenge or two in Peggle on my iPod.
I have uploaded a few teasers, some of my favorites so far, to give you a taste of what we’re enjoying. The pictures below are from Lakeside (first two), Newport (next two), and Cape Blanco (last one). Lots more to come!

It was at the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport. I’ll upload more pictures soon. It was a cool place, not quite as big as the Monterrey Aquarium but still had a lot of displays.
