Second Day of the Year

After noticing that NOAA had issued four weather warnings regarding the astronomically high tides that we were having, we decided we couldn't miss the opportunity to check it out.

Needless to say, it was quite disappointing. The most entertainment came from these young boys that were playing on a log in the surf. They obviously don't know that two inches of water can move a five ton log!!

The kids got away in time, but that water isn't very deep anyway. Nye Beach turn around would be a great place to watch big waves, if they were there. Watch for big waves another time.

A quick drive out to Yaquina Head showed bigger waves, but still, barely anything to snap a camera at. So we left the beach and headed back to the country.

These look like old railroad tracks as we drove along the bay road.
