what i have discovered today:
... driftwood may come with many small spiders living inside.
... stalling your car on a steep hill isn't the way to make a quite entry
... baby goats MAY be inclined to pee on strangers holding them
... an elk head that sin't mounted on a wall really does look real!
... listening to 'Prince Caspian' and then going for a hike really leaves your mind wandering
... coastal wind defeats the life purpose of hair spray
... cheap can openers break! and leave you with a half opened can of tuna sitting in a hot car.
... i don't really like tuna.
... it's nice to not talk for hours on end
... i can leave my car without my camera... really, i can!

today was a great day. beautiful ... sunny.... a two hours drive eneded up taking me 5 and a half hours. let's just say there were maybe sites to see and i am even still wishing that i would've stopped more! driving around some of these bends i am just left in awe of all i see. nothing i have ever seen is quite as beautiful as the water crashing on the sandy beaches, the huge rocks on the shoreline and the amazing white caps that go on for ever! i love being amazed at how big God is and how little i am. and yet, he has a purpose for each day of my life. hmmm.



this was taken a few days ago at Acadia Beach... experiencing the coast without rain was something new to me today... so i thought i would reflect on my past rainy experience.

HUMBUG trail

looking out over the OCEAN!

This morning 7MILES past Bandon i went to the largest game park safari in the states. It was so amazing to see some of these animals! Leopards, Tigers, Lynx, Bears, Lamas, four horned Sheep, Chimps, Peacocks, Camels, Zebras, Hogs, Elk, Deer, Goats, random Donkeys! It was cool... i tried not to think about these animals being locked up in cages and not out in the wild where they were created to be.
