Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 34.6, overcast ….

We changed plans yesterday and instead of going to the Marine Science Center, we drove South taking in the sites and made all the way to the Sea Lions Caves. Goofed around there for a while then headed back north. Made it back to Newport in time for the Oregon Coast Aquarium Sea of Lights. Nothing like the Zoo Lights, but the Zoo Lights didn't have a scuba diving Santa either.

Good evening/night everyone.
Got home a few ago.
My back is screaming at me. Got over to my Dads this afternoon and find out he's sewer line collapsed, so grabbed a shovel and started digging.

Good morning everyone.

Thanks John. I did a pour-on glass resin finish. It has a few little imperfections where some dust/hair and air bubbles popped up, but overall it turned out good.
