I recently took a drive down the scenic Otter Crest Loop, which is an old alignment of US 101 between Depoe Bay and Newport, Oregon. It's a neat little road with an historic bridge designed by Conde McCullough, scenic ocean views and a narrow one way section of road.
Come check out some photos of the Otter Crest Loop, along with a blog write-up at:

Not living on the Central Oregon Coast, it was quite a find to read about an old 101 alignment that I had not heard of. Thank you for the great photos! As for the weather, it was spectacularly nice for November. Glad you got to enjoy it!

Looks like a great drive! I'll look for it next road trip.
