Beautiful Audi Avant.

Newport Marina

Gary treated us to dinner.

I ordered fish and chips. DELICIOUS. Great service too. I wish I could remember the name of the restaurant.

The lighthouse.

Yaquina Bay Lighthouse

A hair display.

Steep stairs.

The attic.

Watched a video about the family that used to live in the lighthouse.

Yaquina Bay Bridge

Art deco pillars.

Heading back.

Stopped at a Dairy Queen. Butterscotch topping.

That’s why I didn’t order a large, LOL.
