Two Places on the Coast with the Otter Name: Otter Point and Otter Rock Skimming down an Oregon coast map, you may get a sense of deja vu or perhaps double vision. You could discover there are two – that’s right, two – places called Otter. It’s goofy enough that there are three Haystack Rocks (yes, one is in Bandon as well), but not only is there the more famous Otter Rock on the northern …
The travel continues as we work from the road. With places to go, people to see. We are spending these two weeks in an area of the country we have seen before many times before, Custer, South Dakota. Mount Rushmore, the spectacular Crazy Horse Memorial, and its Native American University are sites worth visiting more than once in a lifetime. The carving on Crazy Horse reveals more each time we visit. Let us not forget …
Sitting in a camping chair along the Salmon River north of Salmon Idaho, with the river just five steps from our front door is relaxing and the time off from the road allows us to work or to enjoy a different view than the one we have in Gold Beach. Instead of ocean, cool air, and the salty smell in the air, we are enjoying the heat, the smell of pine trees, and the occasional …
Seems the farther one gets from home the more home seems closer. Let me explain. We grew up in the Midwest before expanding our horizon to Gold Beach. Now traveling away from Gold Beach, we are meeting lots of folks who know where Gold Beach is, and they enjoy traveling to the area. The beaches, the hiking trails, the views, and the fishing is just some of the things that draw people to the area. …
A week out and it’s clear that sometimes one needs to take a step back and see where they are from a few miles away. In this case 535 miles from home. A stop at Cape Blanco State Park for a review on what we need and how things are working so far revealed exactly what we expected. Even just 45 miles from home, and at our favorite campground we are not at home in …
Since the onset of COVID-19, the world has seen technical opportunities like never before including distance healthcare, learning, and online service providers. We’ve noted that our clients are requiring fewer in-person services. This trend has prompted us to change how we will offer our services in the summer of 2021. Beginning in June, OurWebmaster will not maintain an office in Gold Beach, Oregon but will be serving our customers primarily by telephone, email, video conferencing, …
Beaches, beaches, beaches….all over the world. Many of us view the beach as a place to visit in the summer or spend a peaceful weekend taking in the scenery. But not a lot of us actually take the time to learn more about the formation of beaches or what it takes to create one. To help you understand your beach better, we have put together some interesting beach facts. Beaches are not only found near …
Gold Beach Offers more than just beaches… Nestled on the coast of the magnificent Pacific Ocean, lighthouses are just a short drive away. Just 38 miles north of Gold Beach, you’ll find the spectacular Cape Blanco State Park which has a fantastic Campground (rated best in the state by some), the Cape Blanco Lighthouse, the Hughes House and the famous sand cliffs extending north to Floras Lake. Enjoy the video below brought to you by …
THE FRENCH SUN KING’S UNRECOGNIZED CONTRIBUTION TO MODERNITY By Guest Contributor Guy G. Gelbron “I’ll be damned.” That’s one of the frequently-quoted script lines from the movie “Tootsie”, in which Dustin Hoffman disguises himself as a woman to play the part of female hospital administrator Dorothy Michaels in a soap opera. The utterance is expressed by the soap’s director as Dorothy unexpectedly reveals on a live-transmitted TV episode of the show that “she” is really …
