News from our former neighbors the Limbird’s from Alberta Canada
Hi all,We are keeping entertained by taking drives on some of the more rural roads around Cochrane and area. We are using a Southern Alberta Road Atlas which has individual pages of detailed roads — including all the township and range roads. It is fun to drive to see the ranches, clusters of homes in places, and the occasional photo opportunities. This past Sunday, we joined our daughter-in-law Megan and our 3 grand kids for a walk in the historic Cochrane Ranch (just beyond walking distance from our condo). We were walking past a small grove of spruce trees and noticed some photographers aiming their cameras up into one particular tree. It…

Number of Homes in Surf Pines
At the Safety and Security meeting on May 12, 2021 there was a question on the number of homes in Surf Pines (SP) over the years. Well with our new Sales Force database we were able to generate the number of homes that existed in Surf Pines on specific years based on the year built listed in the Clatsop County Property Tax Map. The results were very interesting. As of this year we have 353 homes in SP. 10 of these are still under construction. In 2020 there were 9 homes completed, in 2019 there were 9 new homes completed, and in 2018 there were 8 new homes completed. That means in…

People are stealing our flowers…
This came from one of our neighbors… Last week as I drove up our Surf Pines Lane admiring the cherry daffodils at the sides of the street, I suddenly saw a woman cross the street with a huge bundle of daffodils in her hands and she was still picking our flowers. There was no car or bicycle at the side of the road, so she must have been on foot. What kind of despicable people live out here? She had a huge bundle flowers in her hands and she was still picking! She was about 45 years old and a bleach blond. I turned at Ken’s and knocked on his door but…

Our secret weapon to get stuff done.
A little over a year and half ago Art and Kay our neighbors introduced us to Ravi Croak. He lives a couple of doors north of the Bakery and had been the helper for the resident who lived there. Although an experienced carpenter and handy person he had been dealt a couple of curves in his life. Art had Ravi doing some jobs for him and let most of us on Shady Pine’s know about him. Although a bit gruff sounding, we quickly found him to be a real help in getting projects done around the Sunset Beach/Surfpines area. He is the hardest worker and honest. Since then he has built at…

The wreck of the Galena in our back yard.
Here is some interesting History for Surf Pines. The Krohn’s house at the west end of Horizon and the two homes on either side have something in their back yard! Turns out that the Bark Galena, a ship that ran aground on November 11, 1906, is actually laying in the back yard of all three neighbors. This is based on some old tax maps I found. The reason it seems so far up the dunes is do to the fact that in 1906 the beach actually came up close to where the homes are now. The beach has credited over 1000 feet in the last 70 years. This is mostly a result…
