Wordless Wednesday

Where is that danged snowball??

Home - After 5,000 Miles

Sand Bags????

As we approached San Simeon, Ca. we could see in the distance, 

spread along the beach,  hundreds

of what  we though were sand bags.

Soon enough we saw what they really were!!

Their honking was deafening

and so was Toby's barking.

He had to be banished to the car!

We do not remember this Elephant Seal reserve 

from our last visit here back in the dark ages 

of the 1970"s.

Redwood Country

Driving Highway 100 through the

Redwood forest was more than

amazing.

It was dark, spooky and thrilling

to be among these huge beings and very large ferns too!

It was too dark most of the time for photos.

Here are just a a few.

 We were amazed to see herds and herds of Elk

Coastal Sunset - Northern California

Oregon Coast

These photos of the southern Oregon coastline

speak for themselves.

Leaving Beautiful British Columbia

We sadly left BC earlier than we wanted. 

I was not at all well and 

needed to get back

to the U.S. in case I  needed

medical attention where our insurance

would work.

On our way out of Otter Point

I took this photo of

what has become my favorite sign ever!

Our Ferry awaits

A lovely smaller ferry

Another ferry like the one we are on

 Beautiful day - clear and blue for watching the islands as we passed them.
