Sylvia Beach Hotel Snapshots

View onto Nye Beach from the Mark Twain room.


Edgar Allen Poe room. I wouldn't want to sleep under this blade! There's a raven on the dresser (out of the photo).


The Dr. Suess room -- one of the more colorful rooms at the hotel.


Tennessee Williams room.

Nye Beach Angel

I've always liked this angel, assembled from a hodge-podge of metal pieces: gears, grates, and random bits of iron. Last night, the sunset cooperated and I'm happy with the silhouette that resulted. The angel is on a cliff overlooking Nye Beach in Newport, Oregon. By the way, the weather was miraculous! No coat on the Oregon coast in January. How often does that happen?

Arachnophobia

For those of you with arachnophobia, this isn't the playground you'd want to visit.
