Bridges and Coastline

I love this bridge. It's connects Newport to 101 south, and spans the Yaquina Bay. Soon to host the new NOAA site. Research and vessels and bridges, oh my!

"Say what some poets will, Nature is not so much her own ever-sweet interpreter as the mere supplier of that cunning alphabet, whereby selecting and combining as he pleases, each man reads his own peculiar lesson according to his own peculiar mind and mood."
