Words to live by....

Love and Compassion are necessities not luxuries. Without them we cannot survive.

Summertime on the coast

None of the following snaps are of family or friends. Mom and I took a drive up to Bar View Jetty and around the campground, just to see all the folks enjoying our beautiful area on a gorgeous summer day...

When I stopped to get this snap, the camper said we weren't the first to be smitten with his unusual family sign - I told him he should be charging per photo, to pay for this camp site!

Tide pool at Bar View - a favorite destination for young and old.  I sometimes wonder if all the little rock crabs caught (put into buckets and later released)  ever get together and share their scarey adventures...
We don't often get sail boats in Tillamook bay; it was a treat watchng her sail in!
A Coast Guard vessel you might not expect...
The bar is a busy place at high tide - comings and goings.

The classy old steam engine is a favorite sight during the summer, puffing clouds, pulling the touring cars to Rockaway Beach and back.
Our door is always open for summer visitors - homemade bread, strawberry jam, pan fried oysters, shrimp louie...good times, good memories. 
Come make a few...

  1. Beautiful photos and beautiful weather! I appreciated our stay so much and was glad we were able to get down to the sand and sea while it was nice. Just being there to visit was enough for me though!
