Our Whirlwind Day

We started off the morning with the boys taking a ride on Papason's motorcycle and 4 wheeler. They all loved it and had a blast! Here are some photos of their adventure:








We then took a trip to the coast. Oregon is much different than NC. In NC, the coast and mountains are at opposite ends of the state. In OR, you have to travel through the mountains to get to the beach. Jim use to travel to the coast when he was younger and we wanted the boys to see the West Coast as well. Here are some photos of our day:









The large rocks are called Seal Rock. It was known for large numbers of seals being on the rocks hence the name. Jim's mom said that people are always getting stranded out on the rocks because they don't pay attention to the tide:




In Newport, the Sea Lions come up on the docks. The boys really enjoyed them:






We saw two herds of Elk on our trip home. Jim's mom got one on film:




I'll end today's post by showing you what I love most about Oregon. COFFEE ON EVERY CORNER VIA DRIVE THRU. How great is that?
