My husband's family met up for the Thanksgiving weekend down at Long Beach and some 45 of us stayed at a motel/condo on the beach. Weather was anything from full-on downpour to sunshine to a few flakes of snow (!). Here's some late fall color found on my walks.
Gorse blooming on the beach
Dune grass really catching fire with the sunset
Beach strawberry showing some nice red color
Not real sure what this one is, perhaps a type of pussytoe?
Willapa Bay Preserve, nice boardwalk featuring native plants and various artwork (mostly metal)
And what's a trip to the beach without a few sunset shots...
