  1. Beautiful photos! I just had to google Fleet of Flowers and see what it was all about - sounds like a very moving ceremony/event.

    1. It was very touching. We didn't go out with the fleet, but went out later to scatter my stepdad's ashes off Depoe Bay.

  2. I was wondering what all the greenery on the boat was. I bet that was gorgeous!

    1. It was quite touching, although we had our own private 'ceremony' after The Fleet of Flowers. We chartered a boat and scattered my stepdad's ashes off the point near Little Whale Cove, where my folks live. The weather was absolutely perfect and nobody got seasick! :)

  5. What a beautiful tradition--I wondered what the greenery was but I bet that provided such a feeling of calm. Such stunning pictures!

    1. It is a beautiful tradition and I'm glad we got to see the fleet go out. We headed out on our own chartered boat after the fleet returned.
