And Clancy. He so enjoys running around in circles on the beach, unfettered by the short leash I use on him. Running up to strangers, leaping into the air, squealing madly. Dog life is good.
In return, now he sometimes comes to me when I call him. Almost like a regular dog. Certainly like a terrier.
Today we walked under the Isaac Lee Patterson Bridge, which spans the Rogue River at the north end of town. Yet another Art Deco style public works project of the WPA. Would that we could put forth such an effort today to improve our national infrastructure, rather than just the bottom lines of banks and Wall Street firms.

I love the bridges on the Oregon coast. They are national treasures with so much history attached.
We couldn't go on the mail boats when in Gold Beach, but how I'd love to go! Instead, there's a road that follows the river (on the south side) that we used to take so we could see them whooping it up--such fun! There's a neat video on utube about the boats and their history.
Glad you're getting to enjoy the coast.
I love that part of the country. Thanks for the pics and the tour. Take care now...
