OREGON COAST & A TSUNAMI!

In March we rented a beach house on the Oregon Coast with John and Priscilla.  Turns out you can get an amazing deal on an amazing beach house if you rent in March, the rain, and oh yes....a TSUNAMI!!! Just so happens that we arrived just in time for the Japanese Tsunami to hit the Oregon coast!

It's kind of unsettling to turn on the TV and see the local news warning you of a Tsunami and to take to higher ground!  Fortunately we were high up on a cliff but when we went into town, we could see some damage that had been caused by the surge coming into the harbor.  It's a very eerie feeling to look out at that vast ocean and think that a wall of water could be coming toward you.  Those poor Japanese people.

We ate (a lot!) and hot tubbed and walked the beach (with an eye to the waves, for sure!) and just generally relaxed.  Even through the rain, we ended up having a blast!

See, I told you!  Yow!



We LOVED this house, especially the kitchen!

John is keeping a sharp eye on the news for us!




It doesn't get any better than this!

In the rain, JB still needs his hot tub!

Aren't they cute!!!

Friends!!!
At least they give directions...it's basically RUN!!!!!

The magnificent Oregon Coast

Those magnificent girls!

Those teeny tiny boys could get swallowed up by a Tsunami!!!  Click the picture to see it bigger and see them waving at us!

On top of John's hand is the beach house where we stayed.  I'd say we  were pretty safe above the water.....that is when we weren't walking right on the beach!!!
