We decide to get away and spend 2 nights at the beach. We chose a resort that we used to frequent when we were young. It is a good choice for one who is confined as the waves crash on rocks in view of the window. Husband and dog enjoyed hiking and walking on beach. The weather is beautiful. I cannot decide if it is harder to be here and not be active or not be here at all. The smell of the air and the sounds are wonderful. Monday and Tuesday were beautiful sunny days.
On the way over we found a nice wheelable path along the Alsea river at Salmonberry campground.
We saw whales and bats. I wheeled around the old part of Newport and watched the noisy and lazy sea lions piled on each other, some napping, some belly aching. The can't walk at all so what am I complaining about.
I have some concern about my foot. Sometimes when I touch the ball of my foot, near my toes,
there is a weird pain that is sort of electric that runs around my foot and toes. I don't know what this is from or how it will be triggered when I actually put weight on my foot.
Add it to list of things to ask the doctor next Thursday.
Poor husband had to do all my fetching and carrying from car and all of the driving. I am appreciative.
If we thought we were getting away from our crow friends we were mistaken as they paced back and forth outside our room. These crows are smaller than the ones in my backyard. I think there was a mom and child as one crow kept going up to the other with its mouth open and then tried to take something out of the "presumed" parents mouth.
We also had a nest of swallows over our motel room door. These guys were big and there was no room for mom in that nest but she was dutifully bringing them food. It seemed late in the year for babies but they were staying at a pretty nice place.
