Chincoteague & Assateague

 I am linking up with Gemma's  Scenic Weekend

 These are some of the pretty scenes from last weekend's visit to Chincoteague and the Assateague Island National Seashore. We only stayed on night and since this was somewhat of a last minute trip, I missed out on our usual Best Western hotel room. I prefer the Best Western it is located right outside the park. This time we chose the Fairfield Inn, a new hotel that opened off the the main street in Chincoteague Island.

 




Seen in the distance is the Assateague Lighthouse.







The beach at Assateague Island National Seashore.







The boardwalk trail at Tom's Cove.







A beautiful day barely a cloud in the sky. 

 




An early morning misty view of the lighthouse .

I hope you enjoyed my scenic weekend.  I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday weekend.  

 Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate your comments. Thanks for stopping by to see my post and thanks to Gemma for hosting Scenic Weekends.

A walk along the beach and a look back at the hotel.


A pretty sunset from the Marriott beach, an awesome spot to watch the sky. The Marriott Beach Resort was lovely place to stay, everything was wonderful.

Cape Mears Lighthouse State Park

  I am linking up with Gemma's  Scenic Weekend

These photos are from my archives and last years vacation to Oregon.  Hubby and I enjoyed traveling up and down the Oregon coast. The Oregon coast is very scenic, I love the rocky coast, the lighthouse and all the critters.

Cape Mears, a high steep bluff is located on the south end of Tillamook Bay, Oregon.

The Cape Mears Scenic viewpoint has three miles of hiking trails. One is the trail to the Cape Mears Lighthouse.



This area also includes the wildlife refuge. There are great viewpoints to see the native birds and whales.



I hope you enjoyed my scenic weekend.  I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday weekend.
