Another vivid sunrise, faintly visible in the dew drops on the car roof.

When the sun gets lower in the sky, it shines through the glass blocks onto the wall by the entryway.
A vivid sky greeted me at the MAX station this morning.

Foggy MAX Station
An early foggy morning, I found myself at the MAX station, alone. Either I just missed the train or I forgot to adjust my watch for Pacific Standard Time.
Actually, I was early, but it was intentional. The first week after time changes is a great time to get up early. And fog is a great excuse to take pictures.

Cannon Beach Live Sunset
Sunset at Cannon Beach is pretty special. I just can’t get there every evening. Thankfully, KGW8 offers a live webcam.
Tonight’s view was gorgeous!

All aboard!
As I walked up to my stop, the MAX doors opened. All aboard!
As it was going the wrong way, I decided to wait.

Cannon Beach Sunset
Sitting on the couch, updating my blog to a new theme, I heard Ashley preparing to leave. And Suzi and Heather preparing to leave … for the beach!
With two hours to go until sunset, it was the perfect time to head west.
Another great day at the Oregon coast!

Jamison’s first day of school 2019
Jamison starts school again today. No longer do I get to be there to take the picture so I texted Jamison, asking if he’d take a selfie for me. This picture was the result.
Above and beyond! :-)

Visiting Ecola State Park
Another weekend, and the last before Jamison heads off to college. What to do? What to do? Ride bikes around Hillsboro? Longboard Mount Tabor or the Banks-Vernonia trail? Visit Cannon Beach? We loaded our longboards in Jamison’s car and headed west. By the time we got to Cannon Beach, we’d decided to visit Ecola State Park just north of Cannon Beach.
We took a quick stop at Ecola Point but apparently, there’s been some storm damage so the trails are closed. Back in the car and off to Indian Beach. Although it started raining, we headed to explore the south end of the beach. By the time we got there, the rain had stopped. Jamison and I climbed Bald Point and took some more pictures, then rejoined Suzi and took some more.
After the park, we went to Cannon Beach, stood at the end of Second Street and watched the ocean some more. Can’t get enough!
Another great day at the Oregon coast!

Cannon Beach Sunset
“Mom’s going to be home from work soon. Wanna go to the beach?”
Oh, that ranks right up there on my list of favorite questions. :-)
Doing the math, an hour fifteen there, we would have about 15 minutes at the beach before sunset, stay at the beach a while longer, then an hour fifteen back.
“Yes, that sounds like fun! I’m in!!”
Suzi got home, we packed up the dogs and headed to Cannon Beach.
As we got there, the sun was low on the horizon. Ecola Creek headed South quite a ways before joining the Pacific. So we joined the dogs in wading across the creek and out to the ocean. The dogs played in the water, we took pictures and enjoyed the beautiful weather and gorgeous sights.
Yet another fantastic time at the beach! :-)
