| We
decided to take a day trip to check out more of the Oregon coastline.
We had heard about Sunset Beach and thought we'd have plenty of time
to make it out there for the event. At the first beach we stopped
at, though, we saw lots of other cars driving right on the beach,
so Don thought he'd join them. Note for future reference: NOT A GOOD
IDEA! |

Mistake
#1
- Driving a big pickup truck without 4 wheel drive on the beach. |
|
|
|
Lesson
#1
- The old "pizza box as traction" trick doesn't work. |
|
|
|
Joke
# 1
- Some very nice young guys stopped to help, but couldn't conceal
their amusement. And their efforts and Jeep could do nothing
for our truck. |

|
Blessing
#1
- Luckily, a monster truck showed up with enough power to pull
us out of our mess. |
|
|
|
Benefit
#1
- While they worked on getting the truck unstuck, I got my picture
taken with the cute guys! |

Miracle
#1
- we still made it to Sunset Beach for a pretty sunset shot! |
