Happy New Year! From US to You!

Liam Skai Fitch! We are grateful for our new grandson, born June 24, 2021…

“A new beginning,” we say with joy, thanks, love and gratitude for good health and happiness to all!

It’s been another year of challenges for all. But we look ahead to Spring in Little Whale Cove like each year since we moved to the coast in 2005…

When we first drove into town in September 2005, the “Sea Hag” in Depoe Bay was our first stop. We were told, “you can get the best breakfast and clam chowder there, and fish ‘n chips too.” It’s still this way to this day, now in our 17th year on the coast…

Former Depoe Bay Mayor Jim White. Loved by all!

When we walked into the Hag, former Mayor Jim White, greeted us with a big smile. He was sitting alone. He got right up, held out his hand and said, “welcome to Depoe Bay folks. Come join me for breakfast.”

We loved Jim White in that very moment. He was a true inspiration. I was struck by is passion and caring ways.

I wanted to get in involved in our community back then, and remain highly engaged to this day…

Wow! A journey, indeed. A journey of our lifetime, as a family. We love Depoe Bay, Little Whale Cove, and Lincoln County Oregon…

We are grateful for wonderful friends and neighbors who care for each other in the toughest times and in the good times. And there have been good times. More than we can count…

The last couple of years, with Covid, fires, and stuff unbearable at times. Sometimes it seemed more than we could muster the strength to get from one day to the next…

But, we are all here, together as one community, once again, with hope and pride for the New Year…

We believe in each other. We love each other. And, mostly we care, and love Lincoln County Oregon ❤
