Yesterday's excursion took us from Salem to the Oregon coast, with a brief stop at Otis, a wide spot in the road, for what was supposed to be their Marionberry pie, but turned into lunch.

The cold, windy, gray day didn't make for any striking views, but there's a rugged beauty in the gloom. Can't say much for the 'beauty' of the smells of congregations of birds and sea lions.

Question of the day. You're in a brew pub. You go to the area of the restrooms. There are two doors. One says "Barley", the other says "Hops." Which would you open?

Barley
Hops
Today's itinerary is supposed to focus on winery tours. There's some excellent Pinot Noir in the Willamette Valley.

OK - I'll say Barley, so that's probably wrong!
Oregon is so beautiful - enjoy.
