One year.



April 21st Kayla and I celebrated our one year anniversary by heading out on a weekend road trip to Newport, Or. It was a pretty nice drive out taking about 2.5 hours.

Here is our arrival in Newport driving across the bridge.
Another shot out towards the Pacific.
The bay of Newport, Or.
We had the windows out in the jeep so it was kinda chilly. It's always a good idea to carry a blanket with you if you have a jeep with a soft top.
Here is the beach right out side our hotel room.
An old lady flying a kite.
It was bright!

A shot back towards Newport from a neighborhood we were driving through.

Statue of a whale.

The countryside.



Cheez.

Beach shots along the 101.



The day we went back to Portland we stopped by the Newport historic bay front. There's the bridge we were driving across earlier.

Lots 'o boats.

Believe it or not there is a Ripley's believe it or not in Newport.

We heard these sea lions before we saw them and they were entertaining a crowd by the boats.

Sea lion catchin' rays.



On the way to the beach we drove through Corvallis, Or where Oregon State University is and made a quick driving tour of the campus. Here's their football stadium. It's a college town about the size of Stillwater but with mountains around it.




We didn't get many shots of the campus, just this random building. We were ready to get home so we didn't stop, maybe next time.

Looks like you guys had a delightful trip! I like the pics of the seals, although I know they can make some awful noises, haha.
