[AZVAJKU]

Another lost piece of history is the Japanese attack on Fort Stevens.

The final thought for the night:

 

[bobfriesenhahn]

There is an island in the lake which is actually a smaller volcano.

Wizard Island.

I would like to go back and check the island out.

No trip to Crater Lake is complete without a visit to Wizard Island!

So, did they give you diagrams to show the differences between Sasquatch and Rabid Lesbians?

That’s a trick question. There is no difference.

Think I’d rather take my chances with a squatch

 

[AZVAJKU]

I’m thirsty.

Several hours later….

I have always been a fan of Rogue Brewing and really enjoy their beers. When I was picking cities to stay in I picked Newport specifically due to Rogue having a Public House there. (Don’t tell @Traciehue !)



From left to right:









@Traciehue got a pint of the Berry Blonde seen on the back right.

 

[AZVAJKU]

Full draft list for today.





All the beers in my flight are awesome. The Imperial Golden Ale is STRONG and if you drank enough of it you would be bulletproof. (Or at least think you were )

That chocolate is

 

[AZVAJKU]

That chocolate is

Definitely!

I was hoping they might have the Juniper Ale but no luck.

 

[wayoflife]

That chocolate is

Agreed, the chocolate stout is the bomb

You’re a Goonie at heart. Any pirate ships?

None yet. Still looking for One eyed Willy and the treasure. ️

 

[AZVAJKU]

Another hike through a Sasquatch infested forest in order to get to the beach. The forests are beautiful and primeval with creeks everywhere.

 

[AZVAJKU]

City of Newport


Yaquina Bay Bridge opened in 1936




Good beer and food here.




Homeless Seals. These fuckers are loud!!




My kind of place.

 

[jeeeep]

None yet. Still looking for One eyed Willy and the treasure. ️

So many opportunities.... one eyed Willy and the treasure

Yeah, I decided to walk away from that low hanging fruit. Felt like a trap........

 

[AZVAJKU]

Today we went to the Oregon Coast Aquarium so @Traciehue could see the Sea Otters .

It took a while but the Water Weasels finally made an appearance.







Then we went beach as the tide was going out and walked the length of it looking for flotsam and jetsam.






It was cool and rainy but with Gore-Tex jackets it didn’t bother us at all.
