More Oregon coast

Before I start with us, it seems the bug has hit the second Kneller family. Hate to say, but, I'm kind of glad we're where we are right now. We'll add a second family to our prayers.

I know Melissa is waiting for pictures of our "dwelling" here, but I'm saving that for Georgia, and I can't wait to jump ahead to today. It was very foggy on the Oregon coast today. However, after waking up to the crash of Pacific waves and screeching seagulls outside our bedroom, we ventured back north to Seal Cave. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/getaways/141109_sealioncaves.html

but since this 2003 article the price has gone from $7 to $10. It is cool, but it does smell. Because it was so foggy, there wasn't much light in the cave, but we got a few pictures and these short videos. I did them so you could hear them barking. The second one is a close up of a bull on a rock, but I couldn't get my c
amera to focus... Looks like I'd learn to use it before venturing out, right.


I saved the best for last. The power of the ocean and the stability of the rocky shore make an awesome sight and sound. Wait til we show you the Oregon sand dunes where motorcycles, etc. play.

There is nothing like the ocean!!! So cool.

Ava so generously shared her strep with her mama...so I'm house bound for 24 hours (not that I mind the house bound part!).
