Heceta Head Lighthouse-1894

We stopped to look at the lighthouse and heard seals barking. We looked down the cliff side and saw 50-60 seals basking in the sun! Some are laying on the rocks and some are playing in the pool.

Umpqua River Lighthouse-1857

This is one of the lighthouses we toured at Winchester Bay.



This was taken at the museum at the Coast Guard Station.




Coast Guard Motto. The upstairs floor of the museum was dedicated to the Coast Guard.

These rescue boats were used more than 50 years before putting them out of commission. We heard tales that they held 50 people on one rescue. I don't know where they put them.

Coast Guard Sites

We visited as many Coast Guard stations that we could as a tribute to Travis.



You might be a rough neck.... when you name a boat, "ROUGHNECK."




Anchors away!




Brookings, Oregon. A couple of cutters.

One of the Coast Guards restoration projects. Looks pretty sharp.

The Oregon Coastline

This is part of the Oregon Coastline just off the side of the 101 highway. We didn't make very many miles this day because we kept stopping to look at the view. Breath-taking huh?

The Redwood Forrest, California

We were amazed at how big these giant trees are. Yes, that is our car that fits right through one.



Three hundred feet and still growing.



Jed stood next to this tree to give you an idea of just how massive these trees are.

Lake Tahoe, Nevada

We started out at beautiful Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Jed has been there before, but this was the first time I was able to see it.

Grandkid Fun

Jed and I surprised all the kids during the 4th of July weekend by buying this 4-wheeler. Hudson loved getting rides with Grandpa.
