cannon beach oregon: Fishhawk Lake-Cannon Beach Travelogue - 01/26/14 11:54 PM
Mini vacations can resurrect the spirit and love-of-a-lifetime relationship. It did wonders for ours recently. It was just what the doctor ordered....R&R. Who knew when we decided to take a couple of days to be together in January at Cannon Beach Oregon that we would have near-summer-like temperatures?!

 
It was heaven. Glowing sunsets, jewel-toned mornings

 
...great food, kicking around with the dogs, buying rubbery balls (at Puppy Love Store, a local Cannon Beach dog-friendly store) that don't gather sand or get slimy when chucking them down the beach for our four-leggeds to chase. This was at the suggestion of … (15 comments)

From Fishhawk Lake: The Three Amigas Travel Log  
I’m just going to share one day in our “Retreat at Fishhawk Lake” with Debb Janes, Mel Peterson and me.

We drove to Cannon Beach Oregon, one of my all-time favorite getaways, just about an hour from Fishhawk Lake--a great place to take visitors for a day trip when you own property here. Since breakfast had been rather slim, we decided to … (18 comments)

A Tale of Love and Loss at a Lake 
 

 
 
 
 
Sit down a spell. Let me tell you a story. There once was a couple who lived in harmony on a lake with forestland surrounding them. A peaceful existence was always their aim. But, as of late, they were spending much time in a harried state of mind. So, they decided to take a journey together with their two beloved dogs.
The first part of the journey brought them to a nursery where this very bench that you are sitting on found its way to … (55 comments)

Do you know the feeling of coming up with a surprise Christmas present that you KNOW will bring a smile of utter joy??
 
My husband is a tough one to shop for at Christmas. So, there’s always a bit of angst involved in that holiday process. Well, this last weekend, we went to one of our favorite art galleries, the Jeffrey Hull Gallery at one of our favorite getaway places, Cannon Beach Oregon. We had decided that for our 11th anniversary we would pick out something for the house. Last year we bought Haystack Rock Sunset, which is a natural … (15 comments)
