Affectionately known as "Pump Park", this is a little park along the Keller Creek road running between Yachats river and Cape Perpetua.
This little park was a favorite of my grandmother as well as my parents. I'm just glad it's still around for me to enjoy and preserve as best I can in pictures.
There were several quinceanera, engagement and wedding pictorials the day I visited. The cloudy day provided pretty good lighting for portraiture.
