(Oregon Coast) – There are many occasions on the Oregon coast the place you possibly can invoke Lou Reed and begin singing “Oh What a Good Day.” A few of these current days within the final week or so are a stellar instance: there was some exemplary second summer season climate on the market. Good days appear to abound, and the realm has been – principally – dwelling as much as that moniker of “Second Summer season” (that means this time of yr is the most effective climate on the seashores).
It has been captured in quite a few methods in social media, however a number of the most hanging got here from Friday at Florence’s Heceta Head Lighthouse and its present store and BnB. On the Keepers of Heceta Head Lighthstation Fb web page, the nonprofit group has not solely displayed some wonderful picture captures all summer season, however the written descriptions have been downright lovely prose as effectively. There, roving ranger Neil Elfrink supplies writeups of a day’s encounters and interactions with guests together with elegantly-written and informative glimpses of what nature is as much as. Then, his photographs actually drive the factors house.
Living proof: Elfrink’s photographs of the Heceta Head Lighthouse grounds and ocean views from Friday are dazzling.
As he places it: “Gentle winds and a good looking blue sky produced an ideal day on the Lightstation. A pale, waning moon sailed slowly over the lighthouse. A number of whales spouted within the distance. The often roiling Pacific Ocean seemed extra like a tranquil Lake Michigan, in line with some guests from Kalamazoo.”
Certainly, these pictures exhibit the central Oregon coast landmark encompass by seas so calm they seem glassy. It is all mesmerizing.
These current days have been nothing wanting killer on the coast.
If you cannot make the precise excursions of the lightstation and witness Elfrink and the opposite roving rangers filling your mind and with enjoyable and informative stuff, keep up a correspondence with the FB web page.
Second Summer season is the place the Oregon coast climate really will get higher in September and early October – on the whole. Winds settle down, blues skies are extra prevalent, and temps are likely to linger greater, and the entire area is general simply gorgeous. Some locals have known as “precise summer season” as a result of typically the actual summer season there’s suffering from extra cloudy days than sunny ones, however September and October open that up.
Huge open skies have been a part of the beautiful wonders at Bandon on the south Oregon coast lately, which enabled photographer Manuela Durson to snap this wowing picture at night time. Howling Canine Rock, within the Face Rock space, is especially magnificent when seen with the remainder of our galaxy. Her shot makes you’re feeling way more linked to the unusual new worlds on the market.
Final week, wildfire smoke had been altering sunsets on the Oregon coat, although not a lot in the way in which of a burning scent made it on the market fairly often. Different days, there wasn’t essentially any (or hardly any) of the particulates floating by means of the beachy environment. Some second summer season sunsets have been merely spectacular due to the way in which the cloud cowl interacted with the final gentle of day. This shot, taken on the Necanicum Estuary in Seaside by Angi D. Wildt Gallery (situated in Astoria) confirmed simply such colourful pleasantries.
Farther south this month, at Cape Kiwanda, the Pacific Metropolis icon was surrounded by these nice – albeit thinly overcast – situations. Once more, the picture got here from Wildt.

A full weekend of wins saw Dan Lanning and company finally come up short in a recruiting battle.
Four-star linebacker Noah Mikhail made his college decision Sunday afternoon. The 2025 California prospect had a final three of Oregon, USC, and Texas A&M.
Mikhail visited Eugene in June. He also visited USC (June 7) and Texas A&M (June 21). Ultimately, he decided to go with the Aggies.
Mikhail plays for Bonita in La Verne, California. According to the 247Sports Composite, the 6-3, 227-pound prospect is the 69th rated player in the country and the No. 8 linebacker.
Lanning and the Ducks coaching staff has had a busy weekend. On Friday, four-star running back Jordon Davison and four-star defensive lineman Josiah Sharma committed to Oregon while Saturday saw five-star cornerback Dorian Brew and four-star tight end Da’Saahn Brame do the same.
The Ducks have 14 commits right now, with a pair of five-stars and 11 four-stars, according to the 247Sports Composite. That’s good for No. 5 in the nation.

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Oregon State University’s Big Fish Lab is giving a “grand finale” presentation of its educational “Summer of the Shark” series — which includes an in-person shark dissection — at McMenamins Bagdad Theater and Pub in Southeast Portland on July 23.
The event includes lectures on the types of sharks found on Oregon’s Coast, the lives of mother sharks and the risk of shark attacks. The event also includes trivia, discussions with local shark experts, and, once again, a shark dissection performed live.
“Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to meet Oregon’s shark scientists and learn about the important work they do,” Mcmenamins announced. “And we’ll be projecting the dissection onto the theater screen, so you don’t miss out on any of the details. And just in case you’re wondering, don’t worry: the shark died of natural causes.”
Doors open for the event at 6 p.m. and the show will run from 7 to 9 p.m. Tickets for the event are $12 for adults and $8 kids 17 and younger.
Dan Lanning has done a great job of building a talented roster in Eugene as the Oregon Ducks football program is gearing up for what is expected to be a special season in 2024. And right along with that comes a lot of interest in possible draft picks.
So, as Oregon football fans continue to get ready for the upcoming season, they should keep an eye on and start getting excited about the Oregon Ducks’ NFL prospects. In PFF’s recent way-too-early 2025 NFL mock draft, two standout Oregon football players are tabbed for getting picked up in the first round of the draft.
While it might seem a little too early for way-too-early NFL draft content, PFF is literally called Pro Football Focus, so, you know, you can’t really blame them for getting excited about things.
Cornerback Jabbar Muhammad is the first Oregon Duck to land on the list. According to the good folks over at PFF, Muhammad is currently projected as the No. 24 overall pick, which would currently have him getting selected by the Green Bay Packers.
At least he’d get to continue to wear yellow and green. That’s a good thing, right?
Over on the opposite side of the ball sits former Texas A&M Aggies transfer Evan Stewart, who appears poised to thrive as a wide receiver for the Oregon Ducks. Stewart missed a few games last year, but he has immense potential and PFF is currently projecting Stewart as the No. 26 pick in the draft, allowing him to go play for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Which, you know, more green. And a bird!
There’s a lot that’s going to happen between now and the actual 2025 NFL Draft, but as it stands right now, this would be a solid job from Lanning and his coaching staff to develop these players and put them on the platform they need to get to the NFL.
As the season gets closer to getting underway, Oregon football fans should keep an eye on the performances made by Stewart and Muhammad, who could improve their standing in the NFL draft thanks to more strong showings this season.
