Visiting Florence.

Florence, Oregon is the next "large" coastal town south of us, about 40 miles away. Many people are familiar with it because it is on the coast adjacent to Eugene (in the Valley) where there is a large university. We had passed through Florence before- but after sundown - and in the darkness we had not actually been able to see the dramatic coastline near there.
We met more friendly folks there, in the bike store (always need something) and at the bar/restaurant down in the Florence's old town / harbor area. All in all a very pleasant day for us, with good weather: sunny with pockets of fog along the sea.
