The Oregon Coast





Our family loves to go to the beach. (Ok, Alan tolerates it and the rest of us love it!) The kids love to play in the sand and run in the waves. The problem is that the water is so cold here in Oregon. When we went to San Diego, California for Mark's wedding a couple of years ago, the kids were thrilled to be able to swim and play in the ocean without freezing to death. We got back to Oregon, and they had a rude awakening when they tried the same thing here. We still love the coast, though. The scenery is so pretty! And every once in a while you get a warm, windless day, which is what we experienced Labor Day weekend. The water was still cold, but the weather was warm and gorgeous. We all had a blast playing in the waves and digging in the sand.
