Hi Everyone!
If you follow my blog you know that last week just 25 miles from my coastal town there was snow on the only road out of here going east. It was a mess and an accident that was fatal did happen. After 2 days of that it began to rain and rain and rain. It's still raining and not expected to stop for another week. Now, I am fine with the rain, we need it. The snow is in the mountains where it belongs, however, on the Oregon coast, due to so much strip logging we have huge mud slides. Well, that happened on, you guessed it, Hwy 126, the only road out of here going east. This happened about 10 miles from my town of Florence. Coincidentally, the mountain that slid was strip logged this summer.
of town right now.
Life on the coast.
Wishing all of you the very best day.

...talk about being isolated! Stay safe and well.
Yikes!
This sounds awful. Stay home and stay safe! Valerie
That's one way to isolate you. Not a fun way, but ONE way!
Oh my goodness!
Stay safe and well.
My good wishes.
All the best Jan
How awful!
Wow. You would think they wouldn't allow strip mining as those sound like they can cause a huge amount havoc. Stay dry.
Wow. Bad. Glad you can stay home!
Nature gets angry, huh....
What photos of the landslide. Just good that you're safe with yourself. Stay safe and well.
I hope things get better soon and that no one gets hurt. There is so much weather related worry going around. So very unsettling. I, too, am glad you can stay in. Stay safe and enjoy the rest of your Holiday Season.
What a sad sight :( Our roads need a lot of work for basic safety.
Very scary! Glad you can stay home and be safe.
Nicole,
