Lincoln City on Sunday was amazing. Warm, light breeze, completely clear and sunny skies. So warm in fact we had to start stripping all of our layers as we set out on a beach walk. Wind breaker? Off. Fleece pullover? Off. All the way down to t-shirts

We've been invited to a party on Saturday. It's got a 60's and 70's costume theme for Halloween. When I was a kid it was a cinch to go to Goodwill or the Salvation Army and pick up various and sundry items that would easily work. Toda
