I love finding gems at agate beach. I lived in OR for 30 years and always went to Yachats on my bday! It IS a perfect place to write and think.

We love heading down to Yachats as much as we can. Cape Perpetua is a great place to explore as well. Thanks, Sara!

Well, well, Adam. I jumped here from someone's note where you said something clever, then your start here entertained me.

Actually, I was also confused since triweekly has two meanings -- either three times a week or every third week.

I figured you had to be screwing with us if you posted every third week.

So subbed I am!

Looking forward to getting to know you, Adam 🤗

Thanks Donna!! When I’m productive it’s triweekly, but when I’m lazy it’s TRI-weekly 😅

Looking forward to wading through your work. I have also lived on the Oregon coast during the summer session at OIMB down near Coos Bay. The most memorable summer of my college career out at Oregon. Made lifelong friends with wonderful memories to match.

Jaspers are the opaque cousins of agates. Lovely swirly colors and exceptionally smooth, when polished by the sea. I call them “magic pebbles.”

Hey there! Good to meet you. I’m a jasper hunter too, here in Ireland. Plus the obligatory cats. And my Gramps’ name was Norman. So I think I’m obliged to join your club.

I was just introduced to your work by Nancy Boyd who shared one of your stunning photographs from the Oregon coast. It caught my attention because I have spent much time on the Oregon coast. My family on the side of my father is from Oregon and Washington. My Dad was head of marketing and advertising at The Portland Oregonian back in the 40’s. I know that’s cold! Lol! I am 70 and he sired me when he was in his mid-50s. Anyway I look forward to reading your posts and notes. Have a beautiful day! ✨💖

It sounds like your father had such a cool job. In the 40s, that's like Mad Men in Oregon practically :-)

My dad was older when he had me too, so I get it :-) Have a beautiful day yourself as well!

Had me at serial fiction and cats. My child (15) and I are cowriting a serial fiction. He provides the characters, the story, the events; I provide the thirty years of writing talent and skill to flesh it all out and in the meantime he gets to see what his stories can become and work on his own skills.

That is so awesome. My 17 yo is my editor half the time 😄 What a great idea. (Most of my cat pics have moved to notes…. But not my most recent post ☺️ Thanks, Willow!
