The view from here


Florence, Oregon
Driftwood Shores Motel

It isn't as cold as it looks here, but very windy tonight, with sand and mist blowing by our balcony like smoke. We're enjoying the view from the room without any desire to walk out there.  We're just listening to the ocean and relaxing after an 8 hour drive through multiple traffic jams in Seattle and Portland and Salem. Hey, Google maps is dreaming, with their optimistic driving times for folks who never want a Dairy Queen,  or have to go to the bathroom.


Anyway it doesn't matter, because today is the first day of vacation.  And we ate a fine dinner, at the restaurant just steps away from the room.  I had fried oysters. On to the Redwoods in northern California tomorrow.
