Beach Trip Extraordinaire

So Caitlin, Dug and I went to the beach the other day. It was kind of a feel-it-out-on-the-go kind of trip. Which was nice. We took the ferry across from Puget Island, Washington to Westport, Oregon. It's $3 a car, and it's considered State Highway 409. 
I recommend the ferry wholeheartedly. It's a trip, in many ways.


Then we went to the Astoria Column. What a freakin bummer. The stairs are being replaced, the inside is closed, and they want you to pay $1 to park and look around. I was bummed a little bit. Things change and they seem to change for the stupider. 










Kind of like the look of this picture. You can see some perspective and the art is clear. Dug had to lie down on his back to take this shot. Very pro, very much so. And that lady on the left looks like she stepped out of a Rembrandt painting naked and put on the first clothes she could find.

We also hit John Ford's aunt and uncle's fish 'n' chips place, that serves albacore. What a tasty meal. Too bad it's so oily. It went down easy. That's all you need to know.
