more of the coast

We've spent even more time on the coast lately... two trips in the past few weeks. Maybe it's because Portland's winter seems to be taking over our spring... it's been a particularly overcast spring thus far... and getting to the coast seems to help. Our good friends Sam and Susan came to visit for a week and among seeing all that our city has to offer, we wanted to take them to the coast for a day. We had a beautiful (and windy!) day for it.





Then last weekend Moon and I went to a favorite coastal spot for a night... it's a beautiful drive and it was fun to get away. One of my favorite parts about the place is that it is right on the coast, so if we leave our balcony door open we can hear waves crashing against the rocks. I fell asleep while Moon stayed up and watched a movie in bed. And the door didn't get closed. The next morning I felt as if we had camped (though the bed was a bit nicer than camping)... our room was cold!
