I'd been here many times, but this day, with it's silvery light and sparkly October warmth was special. Mom was here on a visit from Louisiana, and we spent the last days of her visit on the Oregon coast. I'll never forget her reaction to this magical place. She fell in love. I think she might have been a lighthouse keeper in a former life, she was so drawn to the ocean. "I could stay here forever, " she said.
Sometimes I imagine a special lighthouse just for her. One full of good books, warm fuzzy socks, French roast coffee, and a solid, comfy old rocking chair facing the view. She'd be passin' a good time, no?
