**NOTE:  this post is presented out of order of THE Trip, THE Encore'.  I had so much fun with this, I just could not wait to post it.  Soon we shall return to mid California, I have many more wonderful things to share with you.  You know what they say, stay tuned!**

Here in Gold Beach Oregon there is a sunken boat.  I saw her as we crossed the 101 bridge, and of course, I had to go back and get a photo or two or - -
