For the last part of my trip, Lisa and I headed out to the central Oregon coast. We exchanged the hot, dry sunshine of Portland for the cool, cloudy (and foggy) beaches of Neskowin and Lincoln City.

It was wonderful to revisit the place I lived back in 2018. I was fortunate to spend a lovely evening catching up with my old LC friends (sadly, I was having too much of a good time and completely neglected to take any photos).

As much as I enjoyed visiting the coast, it made me wonder how on earth I managed to survive living there- I was cold the entire time! The high was in the low 60s, a good 30 degrees cooler than what I’m currently accustomed to! 🥶

No matter the weather, it’s a beautiful place that will always have a special place in my heart.
