Quiet Beach  by mamabec

Quiet Beach

Today I was at Driftwood Shores - a hotel and restaurant that sits right on the beach. This beach was quiet but still contained a lot of debris that washed up with our winter storms. It's actually a great beach to walk - pretty level and there is a stretch that is more than a mile in length. This was a shot taken through the window.

On a side note - today marked my 10th year of work with the same company. The day I was hired, I kind of giggled, because I have this thing for numbers and I liked that I was hired 2-22-2002.
Congrats on ten years with the same company! Lonely looking beach except for the driftwood!

Wow. Really neat. I'm glad you brought up that anniversary thing. I just realized that it's my sister's wedding anniversary.

And since you're a fan of numbers. They were married 20 years ago on 2-22-92. I think they should have waited a week and been married on 2-29-92. ;-)

The winter storms bring in some interesting finds ... some from Japan ... glass floats and also lots of trees that come down the Siuslaw River, go out with the tide and then come back in and land on the beach.

Actually Diana the driftwood makes the beach very interesting during the winter months.
