We left Portland Friday morning and drove over to Cannon Beach for the day. We really wanted to stay a night there, but with Summer prices, hotels were just too expensive. We stayed 2 nights in our hotel in Portland and then drove over in the morning to save a little $. I even scored some canning jars at a yard sale! 56 jars for $ 2.00! Super Duper! We had a wonderful day on the beach. The water was really cold, but we splashed around anyway. I would pay a kazillion dollars to live on the coast- there is something so inviting, calming and relaxing about it. I miss the water terribly and know now, I definatly took it for granted growing up. We ate lunch in Seaside, drove back to Cannon Beach and went shopping and ate ice cream. It was a great day. We left around 5:00 PM for Mom's house.
