Enjoyed a wonderful retreat on the Oregon Coast last weekend. The speaker was excellent, inspirational and challenging. The weather was nice and the Pacific, as always, spectacular. There were lots of little shells to be found, and an immature bald eagle flying around the beach both mornings (on Sunday it flew up and joined three more eagles in a tree!). It was nice being with a group of ladies, but I can't say it felt strange or long overdue; it just was. I walked on the beach five times, mostly alone, enjoying the scenery and solitude. Since I couldn't take any of you with me, I brought home pictures. 😊

It is my happy place as well - only from the Atlantic side. Peace.
Wow!
I have learned that not everyone loves the ocean like us, Elaine. Amazing, huh? 😉
You know what the most wonderful thing is about all that beauty, Tim? The Oregon coastline is all public property. It's "The People's Coast"!
Thanks soj much for sharing your pictures! I love our Oregon coast too! I hope I'll be able to go there again soon. It's been too long already.... Where was the retreat held?
I'm glad you had such a wonderful time!
What lovely photos!! I miss the ocean and am always so happy when I can be near it.
Glad you had a good trip with your pals. I can just feel the air on that beach. I think fleece was invented for those places.
Looks lovely
Jeanne, the retreat was held at The Dawn Treader in Olivia Beach (Lincoln City). It is a WONDERFUL retreat center if anyone needs a recommendation!
Me, too, Mokihana. 😊
Sue, I didn't take a single article of fleece (plastic or woolly) this time!
It was, Donna; I enjoyed it so much.
I'd love to hang out at the ocean!
