The Oregon Coast brings to mind children
and family times--- and Wind! And, of course, Kite Flying. Click

shops on the Oregon Coast--- Catch the Wind Kite Shops, headquarted
in Lincoln City since 1979..

Here's the story.......... In 1978 my
old High School friend Steve Lamb and I were sharing a house in
arid, sun-baked Bend, Oregon, a decidedly un-Coastal kind of place.
Steve had just finished a job that had involved the beginning
of the Oregon High Desert Museum and was casting about for something
else to do with his life. He began to talk about the Coast and kite flying.
I believed he'd gone a little nuts, and I sure didn't want to
leave my beloved desert, so I stayed behind. Steve has gone on
to create a thriving business and a distinct cultural addition
to our State. Congratulations, Steve. Li
