Sun on the Oregon Coast

I went to Lincoln City yesterday for some training.  The weather was beautiful with full sun and no clouds.  Patchy fog in the morning (I left Astoria at 6am) but all burned off by the time I arrived at 9am.
I brought my camera along to see if I could complete my final assignment (a group photo - kind of hard when we are a family of three).  So, there are a lot of nice groups who graciously let me photograph them and then I took pictures with their cameras too!  We all came out ahead.

Even the birds were cooperative!

Goonies 25th Anniversary

The town is overrun with Goonies fans!  It also is graduation night for our seniors, so the town is hopping.
Bill is running a booth from the Elliott and looks very dapper in his goonies shirt and blazer!  He actually let me get a couple shots (just don't tell him I've posted them here).This one is really clear of Bill but cuts off his Goonies piece.  This next one is a little more creative on my part.  I only had one lens with me (50 mm, so could get too far away).
So, there are 4 cast members here signing autographs (poor guys - they have been at it all day).  Bill has at least 3 people wading through the lines to get more autographs and has had Joe Pantoliano stop at his booth and look at his own photograph with his daughter.  That is pretty cool.
