Thoughts For Friday

I had this past Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday off.  We spent a couple of those days in Astoria, Oregon.

You never know what to expect for weather when you visit the Oregon coast.  That's why I actually prefer to go in the winter because if it's rainy and windy, well, it's supposed to be then.  In the summer, it's a little disappointing to arrive to 50 degrees and rain.

Lucky for us, we had nice weather!

Even the beach was decent!  Not too windy nor too cold.

We visited the wreck of the Peter Iredale which ran a shore in 1906.

We also climbed the 164 steps to the top of the Astoria Column.

Unfortunately, we had to return to a heat wave and work.

On the bright side, the heat is helping the pepper plants!  This is a Purple Prince Hot Pepper Plant (say that 5 times fast!)  It's peppers will turn red when completely ripe.

That's all I've got for this week.  Check back next week as we're making progress on the backstep/oriental rug paint job!

Enjoy your weekend!
