Reporting to you from Heceta.... last Tuesday, Feb. 3, the lampist was called in to check out the lens at Heceta Head. The creaking noise had been getting worse. Two bearings in the chariots wheels crumbled in his hands. So until new bearing can be machined, Heceta Head is dark.

Absolutely fantastic. We have not missed one! Had Oregonzolla cheese with dates yesterday. Wow!

I mentioned that the Oregonzolla was worth the trip.

Not good news about the lens! It's been in tough shape for awhile but it good to know it's being worked on although I can't imagine not seeing the light at night. web page Heceta Head Cliff View for Ruthie Heceta Head Lighthouse and Keepers House for Ruthie Heceta Head Sunset 2 Heceta Head Fresnel Lens Heceta Head Last Supperl to r Derith, Ken, Sharon Puls, MaryAnn, Terry, Me, Ruthie, Sharon, Linda, Bryan, and Eric -photo taken by our host Steve Can you believe we're all in one place and sitting still????
