Crescent City CA

We love the Pacific Coast so we take any opportunity to travel to the beach. This is shipwreck reef in Crescent City. A working lighthouse at Battery Point, an island at high tide, warns ships and boats; as well the fog horn warns of a rocky shore close by. Further up the beach at Pelican Bay, the beach shoreline is sandy and one is able to walk it. A seawall protects the yachts in the nearby harbour, but at high tide, the water swells over the wall. In fact, the lighthouse was inaccessible because the tide was coming in. This is a favourite area for surfers and indeed the swell was perfect. Couldn't quite photograph when "on the board"; fun to watch them dive into the swell. Hard work!
Experienced coffee from Dutch Bros., begun and made famous by two Dutch farmer brothers from Grant's Pass, OR in 1992. Now there are a large number of drive-thru coffee kiosks dotted all over OR, with a few in CA. Bill's was white chocolate mocha and mine was ordinary regular coffee...bought some beans, too!
