There are nine historic lighthouses along Oregon’s coast and slowly we have been visiting each one and exploring the surrounding coast. Yesterday we went to Yaquina head and Yaquina Bay, near Newport ( where the aquarium is located) and had a splendid day. Low tide let us scramble all over the rocks and see sculpins, urchins, stars, anemones, lots of kelp, murres, puffins and tons of playful harbor seals. We brought lunch with us and stretched out on the warm basalt cobbles the wash up at the beach. It was a cloudless day, neither of us grumped at the other and it was great to get home before dark ( the sky is still light up here after 10) and play with the Abster before bed.
