Heceta Beach is a great little beach with a great view of the Heceta Beach Lighthouse.
We had a fun time climbing on the rocks and Dad got wet when the waves splashed up.
Come join as we laugh at Dad.

Death Valley National Park is the hottest, driest, and lowest National Park. It holds the record temperature of 134 degrees and Badwater Basin is the lowest point in North America at 282 feet below sea level.
Quoted from the nps.gov website “In this below-sea-level basin, steady drought and record summer heat make Death Valley a land of extremes. Yet, each extreme has a striking contrast. Towering peaks are frosted with winter snow. Rare rainstorms bring vast fields of wildflowers. Lush oases harbor tiny fish and refuge for wildlife and humans. Despite its morbid name, a great diversity of life survives in Death Valley.”
This video simply shows part of the drive between popular scenic locations. We created 6 other videos of these scenic locations. Pleas check them out as well.

We spent most of the day at Thor’s Well and Cook’s Chasm on the coast of Oregon. The waves splash against the rock spewing high into the sky. Thor’s well is basically a blow hole where water enters from underneath and blows out of the top.
Join us as we explore.

The Devil’s Golf Course was named after the 1934 National Park Service guide book to Death Valley National Monument stated that “only the devil could play golf” on its extremely serrated surface.
The saltpan was once a deep lake that has disappeared. While the saltpan at Badwater periodically floods, then dries, Devil’s Golf Course lies in a part of the Death Valley salt pan that is several feet above flood level. Without the smoothing effects of flood waters, the silty salt at Devil’s Golf Course grows into fantastic, intricately detailed pinnacles.

We went whale watching from Depoe Bay, Oregon.
Depoe Bay is a 6-acre harbor that the city promotes as the world’s smallest navigable harbor.
We went out on a boat for about an hour and saw several whales. None of them were showing off and jumping out of the water. But we still had fun.
