Lush landscapes prevail and the residents clearly take much pride in their little heaven. We virtually have these back streets to ourselves as we peek through gardens and imagine living in several of these cozy, welcoming homes. Every corner brings even prettier sights and we spend a good amount of time exploring this peaceful, lovely place.
A trek down to the gorgeous beach showcases the famous haystacks landmark and, listening to expert advise, we time the visit at low tide so we are able to get really up close and personal with the natural beauty and witness the marine garden wonders with awe. Huge star fish are in abundance in a variety of rich, beautiful colors. Gorgeous!
We are amazed at what we are able to find in this pool of lushness and are thrilled at the ability to visit it so intimately. Though a popular place for tourists, we don't even mind as this is one really cool place! Well worth the hike down the beach for a tour. We will take this memory with us for quite a while.
Those starfish are amazing! Hope I have caught you in time to give my eBay penpal who lives in Oregon a phone call. I don't know how close she is to the coast, know she is south of Portland. Donna Raddatz, Sheridan Oregon
