At Cannon Beach, the drizzly weather broke way to glorious blue sky. We bought lunch and sand toys at a nearby grocery store and headed off to play near Haystack Rock (third largest offshore rock in the world). Nate and Julie couldn't have been happier -- sliding around sand dunes, digging holes, stomping sand castles, flipping sand burgers, and finding ways to get sand everwhere. We headed to the town to find lodging, and ended up getting one of the last places available. Luckily we were only a half-block from the beach and went back the next morning.
