We took a lunchtime drive today up to Charleston, OR. It's a small little fishing town on Coos Bay, and we'd done a little research and decided to pick up some fresh scallops, fish, and Dungeness crab at a spot down at Dock D called Fishermen's Wharf: What a great…
1 CommentDrove from Patrick's Point State Park (CA) to Bandon by the Sea (OR) today and we're staying at Bullard's Beach State Park. Got in and did some work before we headed into Bandon to grab some dinner. The Bandon Fish Market was closed by the time we were there (my…

The food was good (gumbo, fried chicken, hushpuppies) and the drinks were appropriately southern (mint julep, sazerac). (Above photo of cranes taken from the waterfront walk that we so desperately needed after…
2 CommentsI forgot how much traffic there is here and how narrow the lanes are. (Thanks Kevin, for driving this one.) Got some more fun shots coming over the Golden Gate Bridge: As we came through downtown, we had to stop for a guy who was walking out into the road…
Comments closedThis morning when we got up it wasn't windy at all. We thought we'd go for a drive up Hwy 1 to some of the view pullouts to do a few flights with the hexacopter for some dramatic aerial shoreline footage. Here's Kevin from one of the takeoff spots North…
