Uploaded by: Sharrose — Monday September 17, 2012 — OR, OR

Just shortly around 8:30 or so on our way out of Gold Beach...Jim, Cecile, & myself saw a light in the fog. A light like none of us had ever seen. We all took many shots of this light as it changed and changed. Here is just one of mine. We just got home from the most beautiful time with our awesome WU friends. I had a beautiful time! Thanks to you all on the West Coast Planning Committee!Duane Foss (Renosohill), Kristina Rinell (kristinarinall), Rich Watson (quickeye) & Lori Quillen (SVLover)

I've seen a few "lights" in my ventures through the Redwoods, but they all pale in comparison to this.
Just beautiful. I hope to see some of the other shots.

Thank you for your gift of this photograph, Sharon! It is an exquisite beauty!! I, also, want to take this opportunity to borrow Sharon's comment section (I won't have a chance to upload photos until after the first week of autumn) to say, "Thank You So Much!" to the West Coast Planning Committee (Duane, Kristina, Rich, and Lori) and wunderground.com/WunderPhotos® for the magnificent job you all did to make this one of life's most rewarding experiences!!
