The Ocean

Harris Beach State Park is popular with surfers, swimmers, children. There's a campground but it has a staffed gate & I wasn't curious enough to bother. The overlook, just off the highway, has a nice trail down to the beach, but it's a couple hundred feet down....and then there's back up.



The trail to Arch Rock overlook is through a lovely copse. But, again, it was too far, though I surmised it wasn't any more than 1,000 ft.




Low tide was around 7:30 pm. The days afternoons and evenings seem to linger more than they do further south. It helps since today it was 4 pm when I left camp.

I stopped at Hawethorne gallery in Port Orford. Damien, a scion, said the art is half family and half artists they like. A beautiful space, aside from two, beautifully polished, female nudes shaped from driftwood, most of the work was mediocre. Damien said their location in Big Sur has been extant for over 30 years. Someone has deep pockets.
