Depoe Bay Harbor
Depoe Bay Harbor and Park with Judy Sparks

I love this shot of Depoe Bay! Of all the photos of Depoe Bay Harbor, this one shows the depth of beauty and the soul of the Bay and the town I call home…

When I see the harbor, on a slow walk by the fishing boats, ready for spring fishing action, it makes me feel whole. This is the place of sustenance and life for our community by the sea, where spouting horns show us life larger than ourselves…

This is where sea birds watch over our community as a family living in harmony with kindness and love. This is where we head out to sea to play and love with Gray Whales who live here too…

This is where Harbor Seals live and play with us in love and harmony. This is where the Coast Guard keeps us safe and full of pride in America…

This is where Salmon come from far away to pass the torch at the end of a life well lived. This is where fingerlings head back to sea to begin a life well lived…

This is where community thrives in harmony and love by sea, where spouting horns show life larger than ourselves. We are one community thriving in the spirit of all of us, not just some of us…

The Gray Whales, who live here too and raise their families, thrive with us with kindness and love. We laugh and play with them, while our furry friends speak to their souls too…

It is here where sunsets bring us God’s presence most days. The sky lights up as Heaven on earth. This is Heaven on earth…

This is where Chief Depoe long ago showed the white man his soul. This is where the mountains and streams meet the sea. This is where God meets me by the sea…

This is the place we call home. This is the place where my soul will return to the sea…
