Tuesday, September 8 - day of rest!

Went to old Florence to Mo's and treated ourselves to slumgullion (clam chowder in a sourdough bowl, with about 5 tablespoons of small boiled shrink on top) and Halibut fish 'n chips.  Then for a Mexican Mocha (coffee, milk, chocolate, spices). 

 

 

 

When's the last time you saw a Jaguar e-type? in this good condition?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Loved this picture of "whale watching".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wednesday, September 9 - Stonefield Beach and Cape Perpetua

 

This is a page from a tide book, which shows that the low tide for Sept 9 morning is 9:38 am. (After our experience with high tide on mid-August 2005 in Alaska, we got much more familiar with tide tables).

We left the campground early to get to the beach we thought best for tide pools - Stonefield beach, just south of Newport.  We weren't disappointed.

 

 

 

 

Here's what we came to:

Anemones, barnacles  and mussels.

 

 

 

and many sea stars...
