Newport Beach, OR to Crescent City, CA

August 18 -19, 2019

Nye Beach Public Area

 The minute we left Nye Beach I was so busy photographing that I never took notes...

Nye Beach continued

Wild blackberries everywhere and they were ripe













One picturesque lighthouse after another

Some kids had loss their lives here...so many signs reminding one to never turn their back to the waves















Looking from Nye Beach to Newport Beach, OR


It was too early to go into this Maritime Center

Loved the signs in Newport

Took a photo of Mike taking photos of the begging sea lions







They really have an attitude with one another and are SO LOUD and VOCAL!!!

If you don't mind the smell of fish, it's a cute fishing/tourist town...There is our poor Edge

So many well done historical murals throughout this town



We had been seeing ads for this restaurant for miles...have no idea if all the hype is worth it?

Turns out this mural was one of Wyland's early ones


Newport Marina was large and picturesque even on this overcast day

It definitely had a large commercial fishing fleet and fish canneries





More sea lions with tourist condos in the background

We eventually had to cross over that pretty bridge

Very distinctly a WPA Art Deco Bridge




Maybe we will cave and buy and small travel trailer that we can pull with a new SUV???
























There were a few lighthouses that we saw from far away but we didn't try to get closer








We were trying to show off the beautiful greens and blues of the Pacific Ocean here



Thought the Oregon Visitors Signs were cool


Didn't expect to see dunes on this coast but they are there...Oregon Dunes Overlook













These photos are what is commonly referred to as a marina layer coming in...or heavy fog?





Although this crazy old boat was close to the coast how they got this there was beyond us?
