Mid vacation, and we’re in the same place for a few days. Walking around, doing jigsaw puzzles with missing pieces, and laying low a bit.
Carl has been fighting a cold/sinus infection(?) since we left. So after our morning excursions yesterday, we hung out in the AirBnb. Reading, a bit of cooking so we could eat in for a change, and working over the puzzles available in our place.
The puzzles were … interesting to work on. The first professed to have 300 pieces, although it was more like 90. No edges at all, and most of the brightly colored pieces were absent.

The next, 750 piece puzzle had about 740 available

We did get out this morning and walked along the roads near the shore. We went down to sea level and looked at rocks and some tide pools. They were not as colorfully inhabited as those at Cannon Beach.


Add 1 more bird to our list, an osprey. Again, no pictures.
After seeing sights along the shore, we hoofed it to a diner type restaurant for lunch. I was really in need of sustenance when we arrived, and I am now happy to be just hanging about again. Almost at 11,000 steps for the day. Who knew I wasn’t in shape for a vacation.
Baseball has been largely absent since we left Dunsmuir. A restaurant worker did bring up the juxtaposition of my Mariners jacket and Carl’s Yankees shirt. This was the day we arrived from Dunsmuir. And this worker is pulling for the Dodgers, we are in California after all. The World Series doesn’t start until tomorrow, but we came across several Steve Garvey election signs on our walk.

Tomorrow morning, we will pull up stakes and hit the road again. South once more.
