This time of year the gardens around Waldport are different degrees of beautiful. I think we ought to thank the gardeners who’ve provided us with the beautiful sights. There are several kinds of gardens but the ones I’m talking about are those that are individual home ones for beauty possibly growing some small produce like…
Broadway in some cities is called the “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” but in Waldport it’s one of the streets that leads to a neat part of town. Follow Broadway down to the re-furbished port and you can choose from four eating establishments for anything from fresh crab to Mexican food. All of them delicious treats!…
The other day when I clicked on the weather news all of Oregon was the color red, a heat advisory. The only exception was a sliver of coolness on the Central Oregon Coast. Right smack in the middle of that coolness was Waldport! Of course we here in Waldport got warm but nothing like inland…

Recently I took a trip. No I’m not talking about a trip to an exotic destination, just a simple trip from Waldport to Portland and back. Although I’ve taken the same trip many times before, this last time I noticed things I’ve seen but not paid attention to before! Taking Hwy 20 East from Newport…
Presidents day always makes me smile! Seems like we can’t decide which President to honor so we’ve just lumped them all together and you get to decide which one to honor!
