On sunday afternoon, thanks to Myra's great idea, we headed to the beach for some cooler weather. We took the top off of Ross's Bronco and headed to Lincoln City. We sure found the cooler weather, 62 to be perfectly clear. It actually felt COLD. and i had to wrap up in the blanket while we were driving because it got so chilly.

This was Harley's first trip to the beach and we weren't really sure how she would handle the beach, but lucky us, we have the best puppy in the whole world. Harley had a great time. She wanted to chase rocks into the waves but as the surf was headed back in she was afraid of the line of foam that comes with it so she would run out and play, and then try to turn herself around and run back to the dry sand as fast as possible. She made it out the first few times, but the waves finally caught up to her and she was knocked over. She really isn't to stable on her feet for being so Big.
Exploring the rocks, nice butt shot

I tried and tried to turn this picture but its not working. I love her sweet face
We wondered around the beach and let Harley chase the seguls for a while, then we decided to head back home. The down side to going to the coast on a sunday afternoon is that everyone is headed home and back to work the same time you are. And its only a little two lane road back to town from Lincoln city, which in therory should be faster than Hwy 101 that goes up the coast. We traffic was terrible, and it took us about 3 hours to get back home when it should have only taken us about 1 1/2. Oh well, we sure enjoyed the ride and the beautiful weather. We all know Oregon so well, we will be soon missing the sun in our soggy winter rain.
The bad traffice following us home, it was just as bad linned up for miles in front of us as well.
we had a great weekend and love playing at the beach. So happy that we live close enough to day trip the beach.
