We enjoyed a pleasant visit to the Oregon Coast (Lincoln City again) for the Memorial Day weekend, even with occasionally drizzly weather. Sunday we drove up to Pacific City for the afternoon and had a great time on the beach before lunch at the Pelican Pub and discovering one of the greatest wine tasting rooms, well, ever.

More on that later. I mostly just wanted to mark the passing of May (a chilly and wet one this year).

I suppose this idea would benefit any news program and not just our local NewsChannel 21 broadcast, but I think the cutaway to every new story should be accompanied by the Law & Order "chung chung" sound. And the end of the show should cut to the yellow digital "24" clock.
