Coast trip

Last week was our annual coast trip, I look forward to this trip all year long. This is the house in Lincoln City that we've stayed at the last two years we've gone. We love the big windows, the short staircase to the beach and the hot tub on the deck. Here is a link to the Rental company we use, http://www.a1beachrentals.com/

This is the life!


Jay and Papa picked up a cool kite. Only $1.50 for what would have been hours of fun, but it was freezing down on the beach.
The guys go exploring
I know where he gets it.

I love being together with my whole family! I think that is what makes this trip so special. Trinity lives in Portland and Casey is moving to Alaska next month. So I cherish this.

I played with color and exposure on this photo. Still learning.

I'm always looking for a good vacation rental at the coast, and that one looks great. Is there any way you can get post me some info about it here so I can find out more? Perhaps the phone # of the agency and the name and/or address of the house. Thank you.

Here is the website for A-1 Beach Rentals, http://www.a1beachrentals.com/ in Lincoln City. The house we rent is called Shoreline Chateau. But they have lots of different houses to choose from in different sizes. They are so thoughtful and make these rentals so homey. For instance, the kitchens are fully stocked w/ appliances and cookware. There are movies, games and books on hand. And the overall decor is so cozy and comfortable. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks.

Thank you sooo much. Their web site is great and their houses look beautiful. It's so easy to get to L.C. from Central Oregon, and I also like to make a little side trip to the casino on occasion.
The houses at A1 Beach Rentals look to be some of the nicest rentals I've seen. (From the pics, anyway.) I also like the wide variety of sizes, rates, locations, etc.
Again, thanks.

Hi Carrie Anne - I got your blog address from Carla. Love your pictures! You all look fantastic. Jeff & I did a vacation rental last year in Newport and it was great. I would do it again for sure. Take care! Tell your folks hi for me!
