crashing sounds

today was a very nice day. i met with a few friends for some coffee this morning, then decided to head for the coast. it was my first time going to cannon beach. the first place i found myself was ecola state park. the view of cannon beach from there is spectacular.



afterwards i made my way into town. i found a location where there was some parking near the far south end of town. i walked along the beach into the middle of town where i discovered the wayfarer restaurant. i enjoyed an extremely good salad for a late lunch.

i then meandered back down the beach in a leisurely fashion before heading back home. i truly enjoy knowing that the ocean is only 1.5 hours away should i have a need to hear waves crashing upon a shore.



i can't wait for the opportunity to head further south to explore oswald state park, tillamook and newport!
