Bandon from the Trolley


                We had seen the trolley on Saturday and Jenna had wanted to ride it at that time.  We did not take the opportunity then, but took advantage after we returned from Face Rock.  We had returned to downtown Bandon for some souvenirs.  Jenna specifically wanted a shirt from Washed Ashore, but there was fifteen minutes before it opened.  Roland led us to the toy store.  Somehow we had lost him and Jenna and I were outside when she noticed the trolley.  She asked the driver how much it cost.  When he said “free” Jenna had more reason.  The trolley comes by every hour.  We got on without Roland, but I didn’t think it right for us to be gone from him for an hour as he would have no idea where we were  (I had left my cell phone in the car or else I would have called him) and got off at the next stop and walked back.

 We went back to the Gallery where Jenna purchased a sweatshirt (which is now a permanent part of her body) and I purchased a book called Sea Change (here).  We did some more exploring and waited on a bench for the trolley to return.  I am so happy that Jenna had the opportunity of riding as she said it was the highlight of our trip.  Jenna took almost a hundred pictures - many of them blurred. With some I couldn't figure out what she it was she was trying to capture. She did get some really nice ones. With the exception of the first picture, Jenna took all of these pictures:
