Cannon Beach and Seaside Scenes

During our vacation on the Oregon Coast we saw several beautiful sunsets.  Our boys played in the sand and even got it in their ears.  They had a blast.  We visited Cannon Beach and the boys got to see Haystack Rock.  They were too small last year when we visited to notice.  We visited the Seaside Aquarium and got to watch the seals play and eat in the water.  There were a ton of laughs as the seals jumped around and made lots of funny noises.  The weather was outstanding.  There was maybe one day of clouds but the rest was sun.  I adore the Oregon Coast and feel I'm greeting an old friend every time I stand on its shores.  After this trip it seems my sons like it too, and isn't that what being a parent is about?  Showing them the things you love and hoping they will too. 

I captured the end of a beautiful sunset in Seaside on our first night.

Lovely fall weather on the Oregon Coast in Seaside.

Cannon Beach, Oregon.  Haystack Rock is the large rock on the right.  Cannon Beach is incredible and picturesque and is one of the world's top ten beaches.
