These homes are north of the Beachfront RV Park, Brookings, OR near the mouth of the Chetco River.
Another construction site along Hwy 101. This was for bridge repair. We felt sorry for the workers because the tarps over the new concrete had sitting water after the series of storms that came through over the weekend.
There are are advantages of returning the way you came. You get photos of the rocks from the other side. Smile.
And, we get photos of these houses that were hard to see coming south.
Gold Beach, OR is a popular tourist destination.
These railroad cars are a big triumph for Coos Bay, OR. When we were here in 2008, the tracks to the mainline in Eugene had been washed out. There was little activity, and the town looked depressed. The tracks were restored through a public-private partnership. The town was much more vigorous this time.
Coos Bay has been through some tough economic times, but seems to be returning to prosperity These ships in port point to a dramatic increase in activity in the harbor. There were also ships in port loading logs and wood chips. Fresh tuna was being sold by one of the boats you see here.
When Mike and Karen were here with us a week ago, we tried to eat in this cafe. They are supposed to have the best fish tacos. However, the wait for a table was too long, so we went elsewhere. Next door is an excellent Italian Restaurant.
