Harris Beach State Park is an Oregon State Park located on US Highway 101, north of Brookings. The day-use area offers a restroom and picnic area with tables, and the campground has RV sites, yurts and tent sites available year-round. It is named after the Scottish pioneer George Harris who settled here in the late 1880s to raise sheep and cattle. Harris Beach State Park is home to Bird Island (also known as Goat Island), which is reported to be the largest island off the Oregon Coast and is a National Wildlife Refuge. The island is also a breeding site for rare birds such as the tufted puffin. (oregonstateparks.org/index.cfm?do=parkPage.dsp_parkPage&a...)

The State Agora at Ephesus, Izmir, Turkey, 25 October 2009. The State Agora, 1st Century BC, was a meeting place for governmental discussions and trade deals. Note the feral cat in the foreground posing. Ephesus was first established on the site of a Hittite settlement (Apasa) on Ayasuluk Hill by Attic and Ionian Greeks in the 10th Century BC. In c.300 BC the population moved from the hill to a new, coastal location (of the present ruins) founded by Lysimakhos, one of Alexander the Great’s generals. In 129 BC Ephesus, as part of the Greek Kingdom of Pergamon, fell to the Romans and subsequently became capital of the Roman Province of Asia Minor. However, in 263 AD the city was destroyed by the Goths. Although rebuilt, its port began to silt up and then in 614 AD Ephesus was destroyed by an earthquake. Despite being rebuilt again, sackings by Arabs in 655, 700 and 716 and the continuing silting up of the port resulted in the populace gradually moving back to Ayasuluk Hill.

This is the Palmetto Tree, our state tree.
It earned its distinction in the Revolutionary War, serving as fort walls, literally absorbing british cannon balls from warships that were pounding the crap out of the fort. As in, the cannon balls would go into the tree, but not out the other side. Kind of saved our butts, I'd think.
