The beach was cold and wet but that didn't stop us from taking a walk and looking for treasures. Newport has a great walking and running beach with solid sand and a flat surface.
The lighthouse at Bandon is still there but the restoration in now complete. It looks great on the outside as well as inside.
I found these two sitting on some driftwood near the lighthouse. After over a month they are still cuddling.
We continued our coast journey with a stop in Gold Beach. We took the jet boats up the Rogue River for 32 miles.
The day was sunny and warm and we had great views up the river. We had lunch at Lucas Lodge in Agnes 32 miles up river from Gold Beach. Family Style was the fare with more good food than we could eat and then back down the river where we ran out of gas and had to be rescued. All in all a great adventure on a spectacular river.
From Gold Beach we headed South again for some spectacular scenery along the coast. Destination: Fortuna, Ca and some time in the giant redwood trees.
