wave watching

cannon beach

we completely lucked out and got in a
hot, summery, 80+ degree weekend trip to the coast (unheard of)!
we had a great time. we found a great little place to stay-
the blue gull inn, just a block from the beach.
we chased jackie around the beach,
he ate sand, dug in the sand, we went on a hike,
thad attempted to turn me into a frisbee player
(better luck next time),
and we saw some awesome sunsets.
farewell summer 2011....miss you already!
