Re: [iPad] OT/VOT

 

I'm a rockhound. More agates and garnet in the northern half. Fossils. Etc. well not necessarily more but the ones I know are there. Beverly beach is where I'd head. Lincoln city. So you're north of Florence but south of Newport? Err my memory sucks when I'm not actually driving there. I like to go a couple times a year. Plus annually to veneta for the OCF. This'll be my first time alone since my first trip in 92. I know a gal that lives off the grid near Florence. She's got a kid now. Couple vintage vw busses. Huge windows looking at the ocean about 400ft up. Stuff dreams are made of. I was there about 15 years ago for a winter storm.  Way cool. She lives off solar and propane. I shiver thinking about how fun that was. Sharing a sleeping bag was icing on the cake. She lives off the third right north of Florence. Way up the hill. S curve. A curve. S curve. Then right ;)

Last time I was on the beach there I found green garnet and jade and carnelian agate and fossils. Some fools gold the time before. Jade has a smooth texture. Just a few grams worth. But fun stuff. Keeps me happy anyway.

Agreed.   Apparently you prefer rocky beaches?    We are right at the dividing line between the top of the Oregon Dunes  ( sandy beaches )  and the beautiful rocky, cliff type beaches of the Northern coast.   We prefer the beauty of the northern beaches too… and much more interesting to browse.   The closet one, although tiny,  is little Cape Cove beach at the Heceta Lighthouse  ( which apparently is still under a 2 million dollar refurbishment.)

Think I may spend a few days on the Oregon coast next week. Or bagby hot springs. Or both. I'd do a beach in wa but they suck compared to northern Oregon coasts. IMO.

I've been here about 16 months.    Nothing better available….           Whether on topic or not,  if I read something that interests me,  I feel compelled to respond.     Besides, have grown kinda fond of hearing from many of you people.   Guess I decided to stick it out.  I'm retired.   I have the time.

Looks to me like you grew to like the weather. You stuck it out and posted up to 8 times a day, including on OT subjects, all month !!

Tony,  if an iPad or iOS device group that stuck on topic came about I would drop this one like a hot potato.  There are a lot of nice people here,  some with interesting discussion,  but if I wanted interesting discussion I'd join Facebook or whatever.   It takes a remarkable number of minutes to purge all the  off topic material on this list,  which in some days far exceeds 90% of the traffic.    Maybe others have little elsewhere to go but I subscribe to over 20 Topic oriented Yahoo groups,  not to mention a number of WEB based discussion forums and it is becoming unwieldy to keep up with everything when there is a lot of chaff in the way.    I will try to stick this out a bit longer …. But the forecast doesn't look good given the recent 'weather' here.

Does anyone else in the group feel that there should be a new group formed for OT or VERY OT?
