Lincoln City

Last week-end we went with a group of friends to the Oregon Coast.  The weather cooperated and provided us with a wonderful storm.  The waves were gigantic.  The wind blew, pelting the house ans shaking the windows.  We only stayed for two nights so it was short and sweet.  You can't get into your place until afternoon and have to be out by 11 so it does not give you much time in a week-end to relax, but we did our very best.
   I am not a big fan of Lincoln City.  To me it is over commercialized.  Too many people, Too many restaurants, gas stations, curio shops,  I am more a fan of the coast of southern Oregon, especially Bandon, and Coos Bay.  However finding a house to accommodate 9 people is a bit of a challenge.  This house met our needs very well.  It sat up on high ground several levels above other houses so the view of the ocean was great.  The walk to the beach was a bit of a discovery trip but worth the effort, of course.  Walking on the beach was limited by the tide and the storm surge which pushed the waves up to the beach wall.
