Dec 31st- Octopus
Marty and I have returned from a wonderful, relaxing visit to the Pacific Northwest. My Mum is doing a bit better and I was relieved that my brother and his wife filled in 110% for us while we were away.
I'm way behind on what' going on here, I posted some iPhone pics via a smug app but the captions didn't upload and I am noticing neither did the exif info. I hope all is well with you and yours. I would like to wish all my DP friends a Happy New Year and thank you all for the photo friendship we have here!!
Here is to good things in 2012!!

The Octopus Tree, also known as The Council Tree is located a few hundred feet from Cape Meares Lighthouse on the Oregon Coast.
The Octopus Tree is a Sitka Spruce shaped like an upside down Octopus.
No one knows its actual age because that would require chopping down the tree to count the rings. However, The Octopus tree is believed to be hundreds of years old dating back to when the Indians lived in the area. In fact, there are rumors that the Octopus Tree was shaped like an octopus by the Indians to hold their canoes with their dead in it. So, the Octopus tree could have been an old burial site.
