Oregon... continues

 The next morning we got up early to head out tide-pooling. I love looking for starfish, and we found quite a few. Porter loved looking for different things in the water and was so thrilled to find starfish.

 After we got back to the beach house we caught some pictures of Kenny trying to pull off a superman jump on the back of the bike.
 And he gave it his all.

We all got cleaned up from our adventures for the morning and headed south to go see some lighthouses and sea lions.
On our way we pulled over to see the Spouting Horn in Depot Bay. With the storm rolling in that day, we saw some really big splashes as the waves would come in.
 After lunch at Mo's and checking out the bathing sea lions, we headed to Heceta Head Lighthouse.
 You can see the lighthouse in the background behind the boys while they enjoy the enormous suckers from Newport's candy store.
 It's a shame that the lighthouse was closed for repairs. But the hike was fun and the views were incredible.
Such a pretty, windy, rainy day on the coast. I loved it.

Darling picture of the boy and their suckers. Oh, and the Lighthouse in the background :) I totally forgot about the Crazy Kenny pictures. They made me laugh all over again
