Agate season opening


The waves here have been enormous all winter. Every set of big tides  repositions tons of sand.
Yesterday, in the pre-dawn hours, there was a ten foot tide and I woke to a moon setting, the sun rising and for the first time in months I couldn't see the breakers from the deck.



So I grabbed the camera and set out for the beach to find a small agate as soon as I got to the pebble line.

Its been cold at night and chilly in the morning. I went back to the beach for the morning sunrise this morning.
Later drove up Cedar Valley to help with the "over the rainbow" riding program. Clouds hovered above the Rogue and its tributaries.
