#footpathfriday

Looking through photos and came across this from a trip we took down the Oregon coast highway. If anything is magical this would be it. It's a feast of the senses such as you might as well have snuffed some fairy dust. And then as if this isn't enough, you see a bunch of elk and a sea geyser. #hwy101 #haystackrock

#CapitanFire

Update for my #SantaBarbaraCounty peeps and those who have to take #Hwy101. There’s a new start in the El Capitan fire. I don’t have much info yet but will keep you posted.

A woman killed on #OregonCoast #Hwy101 yesterday across from #LincolnCityCityHall & McKays grocery was reportedly the wife of a McKays employee. She was using a #microMobility device, with a USPS van onscene. One passerby inexplicably stereotyped the #bicycle saying, "Looks like a homeless person." The husband was there & yelled, "Don't you stop!" as medics ended CPR. Drivers regularly speed here & #LincolnCityOR persists in neglecting to hold & hear a #BicycleAdvisoryCommittee. #TrafficViolence

Iron Horse - Headed to Mendocino County

From my article (previous post): "The BPAC invited Jenna Berman, the Region 2 #ActiveTransportation Liaison from Oregon Department of Transportation (#ODOT), to the next meeting to discuss #Hwy101... County commissioners will provide a new livestream option that will create virtual access to the meeting for anyone able to participate remotely"
