    Wonderful capture and timing! Exquisite photo of oregon coast. I’ll miss it?
    You’ll never believe it; but OR Dept. forestry (Astoria) Larry Sprouse finally called me after certified for his position. He offered me an interview the same day U.S. National park Service offered me my ‘Environmental interpreter/ Ranger position” in John Day Fossil beds Nat’l Monument. I will be working with paleontologists!

    Moving to Dayville Saturday! I guess we see each other on the Bubble? I will be offline till July as we change internet providers etc.?

    Hi Judy…it scares me when the mother seals do this. They leave the kids on the beach while they go fishing. I usually find one or two of the pups a year out there. They’re not abandoned, but I always hope dogs don’t come around while mom’s away.
