Nov Beach Trip (Return Trip)

Julie & I had snow on our return trip. The Santiam Pass was chains or traction tires required and luckily I had put on my studded snow tires before we left for the beach.

A storm came in Wednesday and we stayed in except for a trip to Moe's in Newport. They had kids eat free so even a storm couldn't keep away.

Michelle our friend from Troutdale lives in Lincoln City now, so Julie invited her to dinner. I don't know if she got a chance to eat it seems she was staying pretty busy with Hannah.

Nov Beach Trip (Lincoln City)

You can tell it was a nice day to be at the beach. Abigail was having fun showing off her writing abilities and Elijah was daring the waves to get him most of the time. Caleb and Hannah just enjoyed being at the beach.

Nov Beach Trip Newport

The weather was pretty nice on Tuesday, so we went to Newport to the "Hatfield Marine Biology Center", but it was closed on Tuesdays. We then went to walk along the wharf and watched the Sea Lions. Besides being mean to each other they really stunk. So we headed for the beach in Lincoln City.
