Since we had traveled up to the Seattle area April 4th for Scott Sigler’s Book Tour, we decided to make the most of the trip and go diving Saturday morning. Being lazy divers, we went up to Edmonds Underwater Park in Edmonds, Washington, just north of Seattle.

This was taken on a day trip to the Oregon coast, at the wonderful blue cobble stone beach of Yaquina Head.

It was a cold and cloudy day. A bit of rain was falling occasionally mixed with a spattering of snow. A perfect day to go to the Oregon Zoo!
Why not wait for a beautiful sunny warm day to go to the zoo? Because that’s when everyone in the greater Portland metro area goes to the […]
