Up the (Yaquina) river





This morning, we headed up the Yaquina River, by boat. The day started out overcast, but calm, and the incoming tide slowly moved ahead of us. The river took on a decidedly green cast as it mirrored the hues of our green state. We encountered one river otter, a deer, and one seal up river, near Elk City.

Back at the mouth of Yaquina Bay, near the port docks in Newport, we found sea lions lolling around in the water and on the rocks.
