ROCK THE CRADLE

Our beautiful Pacific Coast along the edge of Oregon presents itself in new ways each day.  We sometimes are blinded by the sun as we take in the mountain's profiles tumbling into the sea. More likely, we are feasting our eyes on glorious shore waves rumbling to meet those same mountains.

My favorite is the times the water mingles with the land making it difficult to tell where one stops and the other one starts.  Fog is the medium.  Fog is the "fabric softener" of the mountain scenes.  Fog, like cotton balls, rolls in to fill the canyon gaps. Makes me think the mountains are snuggling up with a downey blanket.  Just think of it.  Pull the fog up to your chin North America.  Listen to the music of the Pacific Ocean.  Rock on!

  1. This looks like home to me. I was raised on the coast and didn’t know you could have two nice days in a row until I moved away. :-) I still miss the mist and fog ‘once in a while’. A hint for travelling light: Buy a small bag of rubber bands, preferably the wider quarter inch ones, and use them to keep anything from coming apart. You can put them around dog food bags, salad bags, put a sandwich bag over something and wrap a rubber band around it, keep things small and compact in a back pack, keep bread sacks from opening, make towels smaller - I could go on and on. (BYW, we love your chair and so does our cat.) Pamela

  2. Great tip re the rubber bands. You really know how to do it with all your travels. Glad you like the chair, cat too. It's good to have a happy cat.
