I Like Thursday #354

We are back home this morning after a week away on the Oregon Coast.  It was a really enjoyable getaway, and we had a great time wandering and exploring all over the place, visiting favorite places and seeing new sights.  

We have a favorite little inn we stay at in Depoe Bay, and every room has a view of the bay - it's always changing.




I just love being by the water!


Have to get my toes in it at least once.  But it was cold!


We bought groceries and made picnic lunches each day.  Oregon parks have nice picnic areas with great views.  


I love walking down to the point at the end of the road where our hotel is located to watch the sunset.  It's another view that changes every day!


Even though I'm happy to be home again, I'm never quite ready to leave.

Until next time, Oregon!

  5. Hi Diann! Your photos make me long to go visit and Oregon is one of the states I've never been to. How often do you go? I recall seeing pictures before but I have no idea if you drive? Is it far? Not that it matters - enjoying yourself by the water is all that counts. Thanks so much for sharing the pictures!! {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

  10. It sounds like you had the most amazing time, Diann. Such beautiful photos of the bay and the water . I can almost hear the sounds of the waves against the rocks and the birds flying overhead. I hope you have been able to relax as you get back in routine. I agree it is hard to say goodbye to a great vacation.

  13. Beautiful photos and I especially enjoy the photos of you two. Oregon seems like a beautiful state and of course, the ocean adds to the dramatic views. Growing up in Newfoundland, it is all about the ocean and I miss it. Thanks for sharing!

  14. Love the photos! I have been to the Oregon coast a few times and you make me want to go back! My sister lives in Brookings...it must be time for a visit! You and your Hubby travel like we do...we shop at the market and picnic. So fun to choose a spot outdoors and enjoy nature while we eat! I am glad that you were able to go to your happy place and be refreshed! :)
