Bridges of Lincoln County

I know, two posts in one day! But it’s a chilly, cloudy, rain-threatening day, and it just seems like a good day to stay inside, in front of the computer, and play. Besides, I have these pictures that are crying to be shared.

The first is the underside of the bridge where highway 101 crosses the Beverly State Beach:

Another day I will share the photos of our walk on the beach, but today it’s all about bridges.

The second bridge is just before a scenic viewpoint, also on highway 101, where we saw a whale blow, then the back of the whale, and watched the seawater spouts as the waves hit the rocky cliff.

And one of my favorite Oregon coast bridges – the Yaquina Bay Bridge. This is one of Conde McCullough’s bridges, which proliferate along the Oregon coast and which I think are some of the most beautiful and graceful bridges in existence. We arrived at this bridge after dinner on a cloudy evening, just as the sun broke through to cast its golden glow, so I took pictures from several vantage points.
