PICTURES FROM A TRIP TO LINCOLN CITY


We went to Portland for a doctor's appointment and took a different highway down to Lincoln City. This is Devil's Lake in Lincoln City across the road from where DeWayne's Dental Clinic is located.


These are mountains south of Tillamook in the Coast Range.


More snowy mountains south of Tillamook


This is Cape Meares looking across Tillamook Bay.


This is looking across Tillamook Bay towards Garibaldi where I used to live.


Here is the G on the hill (for Garibaldi). I took this with a Canon S5-IS super zoom but took it back because of a stupid lens cap that kept falling off and a battery compartment that I couldn't open. Now I have a Nikon Coolpix 80 with 18x zoom. I like it so far.


Another picture of the smoke stack from the lumber mill where my step father worked when it wasn't fishing season. They have set times for commercial fishing of salmon, sturgeon, etc.



A bridge across the highway for pedestrians in Twin Rocks.


Looking across the Nehalem River toward Wheeler.


One of my favorite viewpoints up on Neah-Kah=Nie Mt. looking south down the coast.

All those pictures are familiar sites to me. I made that drive up and down the coast many times. I love Devil's Lake in Lincoln City. It is fun to drive around it. Great job on your blog and I'm glad you like your new camera. It takes really nice pictures.

Wow, the Garibaldi "G"...memories of Grandma and Uncle Gary. I treasure those times I spent there with them. I remember one Saturday morning eating the tallest stack of pancakes, in the living room, watching the three stooges. I didn't get to do that at home, and I let you and Dad know it when I got home, and I remember Dad saying that I was learning bad habits and maybe I shouldn't go back...funny.
