Fun day at the Oregon Beach...

It feels like summer has arrived and the city is getting hot. On Sunday we decided to take a day trip out to the beach. For those of you that do not live in Portland, the beach is just a short 1-1/2 hr drive away from our home in SE Portland. It is usually nice and cool at the beach when the city gets hot...

We packed a picnic, beach toys, sun tan lotion, and off we were. All of us like Canon Beach a lot its downside is however, that a ton of others like it too so it gets very crowded. Therefore we decided to drive to Nehalem Bay State Park. It was GREAT!!! No crowds, and we found the ideal spot in the dunes. Both girls ran up the dunes, rolled back down, or Alena tumbled back down. It certainly made them hungry :) Just so glad that we packed our picnic, as the food issues is generally a little tricky at the beach. One thing to remember is that there is a little organic food store in Manzanita and they also sell vegan ice cream...
