Seaside, OR condo

As we took our trip from Idaho through Oregon we followed the
infamous Lewis and Clark Trail. Below is their statue showing the
end of their journey at the Pacific Ocean in Seaside, OR. at the end
of Broadway. (just outside our condo) Our balcony looked out on
Broadway and the Shilo Inn across the street.

This our condo in the background (right) and Shilo Inn on the left.
You can barely see the lifeguard stand and two emergency vehicles.
They had beach volleyball available and a swing set for the children.
They even had showers for people to wash the sand off as they exited
the beach.
I made dad turn around for a picture - he was searching
after every wave went back out for shells. Both hands are
full of his "treasures". Brad was smart enough to take his
shoes off - dad and I ended up with wet, sand filled shoes.
It was a beautiful evening out there!


We went out to the ocean late the evening we got there and took
these pictures. We have our coats on because we were cold!!
It is usually windy at the beach and with the sun not shining it was
cold. Believe it or not there were people out there in swimsuits!


This is "Haystack Rock" at Cannon Beach - the most photograped
spot on the Oregon coast. It is beautiful and unusual. I'm sure my
snapshot is NOT the best location for the shot. But alteast I got
the shot!
