Cannon Beach and Beaverly Beach

I was excited to see Cannon Beach.  I had hear so much about it.  

Staying on our trip budget we ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the beach and we all tried to get potential face book profile pics with these famous monoliths. 

Taking a great picture didn't work out so well and after only 10 pictures Spencer was bored.

Spencer preferred playing with the seagulls to having his picture taken.  

I think he missed his little bird.  

Daniel took the most successful picture with the famous Cannon Beach landmark.  

Apparently women on online dating sites respond most favorably to pictures of Men that are looking away from the camera.  

So if 16 year old Daniel wants to start meeting chicks on line -this is the picture he should use.  

Our next beach stop was Beverly Beach. 

It was LOVELY. 

We all had a great time.

Until we realized that the car keys had mysteriously fallen out of Daniels pocket. 

The keys were LOST somewhere in the sand.  

I made him go look on the whole beach for them.  

Amazingly they were found!

Hurray!

I still felt it was a perfect opportunity to give:

But who could stay mad at this cute kid?
