Cool Beach Towns In Oregon Two

Still in Lincoln City, on the Oregon Coast, walking down Highway 101 in the early morning while it's pouring down rain. Had the old reliable point and shoot Canon Elph 300 HS with me.

Here are the first two posts: Lincoln City (link) Lincoln City Two (link).

Most of the shots here are random...except for Barnacle Bill's and Deli 101.

Barnacle Bill's is an old staple in Lincoln City...home of a great seafood market...like they have fresh dungeness crab. As long as I can remember and, I'm an old duffer, it's been around. I'm sure it's changed hands a half a dozen times, though.

As far as I know Deli 101 (link) is fairly new, as compared to Barnacle Bill's. I'm going to give the deli a plug.

My wife and I decided to get a deli sandwich to go. Well, there are deli sandwiches and, then there are deli sandwiches. I ordered the "Taby"...it is: turkey breast, avocado, bacon, tomato, cheese, onion. It was a "Bet you can't eat it all!" type sandwich. Actually, a two meal deal and reasonably priced.

My bride ordered the Tarragon Chicken Salad Sandwich and she had to tell him to leave off some of the chicken salad because it was so big. I had my USMC cap on and he gave us a veteran's discount on top of it all. 

Enjoy the pics!

Lincoln City Two

OK! More pics from Lincoln City, Oregon. If you missed the last post here it is: Lincoln City (link).

As I stated in the first post, Lincoln City is a culmination of six beach towns, back-to-back. It is a very popular vacation spot on the Oregon Coast with lots of hotels, motels and rental homes to choose from, if you decide to visit. Many places allow pets.

Weather-wise it isn't exactly Hawaii during the winter months so, you can get some really good deals on lodging. The beaches are nice and there is some excellent surf fishing on the north beaches for perch.

The first pic was taken real early in the A.M. and, it was raining. Ooh, yeah rain in Oregon is rare! It is of the "Seven Gables" on Highway 101 built in 1922.

The third photo is of a mural on a side of a building on 101. Two are random shots when walking down 101 except the "Dory Cove". If you like seafood, it's the place to go in Lincoln City.

All the above photos were taken with a Canon Elph 300 HS...it carves cameras costing three as much...right now you can get it for as low as $95 through Amazon!

Beach Towns In Oregon

There are beach towns that are booming, overfilled with people, and overall not real cool places to be if you want solitude. But, if you are seeking peace and solitude there is no better place to be than in Bandon, Oregon. 

Bandon is fairly close to California and a neat place for folks to come to and retire or to just visit.  It is hardly a destination for college kids on spring break to decend upon.

In general, the beaches are pristine, and that is an understatement...you'll be hard pressed to find any footprints in the sand even.

Most of the photos here are converted to High Dynamic Range Photography (HDR).  All this means is that three photos are taken of the same thing at different exposure values and converted into one pic through special software.

They have a super cool boardwalk, which is the fourth pic down.  I'll show more of it later.

The pics here were taken very early on a Sunday morning, a tad after 5:15 AM , and a little later before folks were up.

Bandon is home of the Oregon Islands and you'll see those in future posts.
