South Of The Border
Oregon's official state flag was adopted in 1925. It is the only US state flag that still has a design on both sides. It's true: you can source me!
A few more snapshots now from my drive down the Oregon coast over the weekend. (Click on any photo for larger version)
Water, water everywhere...
Rocks too!
And lighthouses.....
And rain....
And me.
And no caption needed.
More tomorrow.






That guy you know, nicknamed "the hair", well
you can't call him that anymore. Wonderful
pictures though!

That shot of the lighthouse through the rainy winshield could pass for a still from "The Ring", or some similar horror/mystery movie. Great composition.
Come on, Bean, it's only a small step to cinematography!

Kewpie dolls are evil and should be melted down. Sure, it's probably not environmentally correct to amass that much plastic in one spot, but I think it would be justified in this case.

Dang, Bean, really epic photos!
I'm off to the Oregon Coast in the morning for a couple days of new year misty magic.
I can only hope it brings me the same beauty as it clearly brought you.

Bean --
Why do you look like a 50 year old woman that's been smoking all her life?

At one time, my ex-wife wanted us to move to Bend, Oregon. I told her it sounded too much like "Bend Over Again".
