Oregon Coast

When Gus, Meara, Rosie and I went to the beach for Rosie's 3rd birthday, we stayed in a lovely house in Seaside Oregon.  The beach in Seaside was not very different than the beaches in Cape Cod Massachusetts.

Before going back to Portland, we drove about 20 minutes down the coast to Ecola State Park.  It was there that I found a very different coast than any I have been to on the East Coast.

We got to the beach just after low tide so we explored the tide pools and all of the wonderful creatures that attach themselves to rocks and wait patiently for high tide.
