What The Heck Am I Doing?

This blog all started with an idea, as most probably do. I wanted to make a coffee table book of my scenic photos from around Oregon. It would have been called "Oregon 365: From Beach to Burns". I want to capture Oreogn in its finest all during the year. I have lived in Oregon for 15 years, and although I admire the beauty throughout all the United States and World, I think Oregon is a very diverse and beautiful place to live. We have lush evergreen forests, peaks that rise into the sky, gorgeous coastline, rolling hills, valleys, desert plateaus, canyons, rivers, lakes, and streams a plenty! There is so much in Oregon to admire, I feel you can go anywhere and find beauty. So that is the purpose of this blog, to admire and recognize the diverse beauty throughout Oregon.

Day Twenty-Six

I took this March 2003. It is of the Yaquina Head Lighthouse, just north of Newport, Oregon. It is a beautiful lighthouse and they even let you walk up to the light itself. The view from the top is amazing! I can only imagine what it must have been like for sailors and seamen to man the lighthouses in the late 19th century (this lighthouse was constructed in 1872).
