We had two beautiful days on the beach

The stereotype about the Oregon Coast in winter (and at other times) is that it can be a cloudy and gloomy place, even in the eight hours of daylight that we get around solstice. And that is true. Even "sunny" days have a constant drizzle and mist.

But not totally true: the last two days have add clear skies, bright sun and I actually felt uncomfortably hot at times, walking around.

So this year is ending on a high note. I hope this presages a lot of energy for the year coming up. I can't cocoon and hibernate forever! Maybe even January will have some energy in it!

I also hope to add some friends on here. I've been on here for a year, but haven't really heavily utilized it. Maybe that will change in 2026!
