When we visited in January we decided to make this our monthly coffee date, so I present you with a year of coffee flights recap: January Coffee Flight The Horeseshoe Latte had cinnamon and tasted like the rice pudding my mom used to make at Christmas.

A Night at the Heceta Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast
The Heceta Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast is a magical place nestled in the hillside of the Oregon Coast. The keeper’s house was built over 100 years ago. A lighthouse keeper operated the Fresnel Lens from 1894 until the 1930s when electricity became available. As a result, the lighthouse was automated and the keeper was no longer needed.
