On Christmas Eve, Suzi, Jamison, and I explored a bit. With the freeze of the last few days, we decided against driving over the coastal range to see the King Tides at Cannon Beach. Instead, we drove to L.L. Stub Stewart Park and tested the limits of traction by trying to walk in the parking lot.

Then we went to Buxton Trailhead of the Banks-Vernonia Trail to check out the trestle and take a few photos.
