    Here are a few shots from my recent trip down the Oregon Coast. Just click The Oregon Coast. I'm making up these pages only for GardenStew.

    What wonderful rugged scenery!! I've saved these to my favourites so that I can access and look at them whenever I like. I love the diversity of animal and plant life that can be found on the shores. I've never seen a bright green anemone like the one in your picture - what a lovely colour. :-D

    WOW. Breathtaking isn't it? I've put it in my faves too. I want to look at the pics again too. I'm imagining the sounds and smells you must have encountered in the procees, Kildale. I would love to see that Coast area face-to-face.

    What awesome shots and beautiful scenery. It is obvious you never tire of the camera. You bring us such beautiful pictures and take us to places where I will probably never see. Thanks so much!

    WOW!! I like the little squirrel :p How far south did you go? I think it's Charleston where you'll find the botanical gardens. Talk about a rose garden ;) That is probably my favorite spot on the Oregon coast. I hope my fellow Oregonians treated you well :-D

    Thank you for the messages. Pleased that you enjoy the pictures. We went as far as Florance, although in the past I have driven down to San Francisco. We have travelled the Oregon coast a number of times as it is so easy to get there from here. Been to Yellowstone three times and the Grand Canyon 4. North West Territories is up next, in Sept.

    Beautiful photos. I have only seen the Oregon coast at Bandon, many years ago. I would love to see the part of the coast you photographed.

    Thank you for the posts. It is beautiful down the coast, it is also great down the Califronia coast which we saw a few years ago. The coast is really easy to get to from here, we plan to go back perhaps each year, just a short trip, 3 or 4 days when the tides are low. Our main trips are March and Sept.
