Ah rain!

OK, we get it.  Most of 2015 was very dry here in Oregon, but the month of December is making up for it, big time.

This morning, the Pacific looked the color of cappucino.



During sun breaks in the series of storms that have hit us in the last week or so, I've been out walking on the beach looking for beach erosion.

While I have found some beach erosion, it isn't where I expected it.  And driftwood was everywhere, including still coming down the river, and out the mouth of the bay.

Beach erosion along the north edge of the bay.

I don't think that I would sleep well in this house during a storm.

Here's a pile of driftwood at the mouth of the bay.

A bald eagle perched on a log in the center.
Not everything was dismal.

Trust me, if I could, I would re-route some of this rain to needy parts of California.
