Sunday, July 3rd we woke up to a nice, sunny day. This is the cottage where Chris' family, Brett & Lauren, and Darren stayed. Dale & I stayed in the Overleaf Lodge, which was within walking distance of the cottage, and the beach!
The first thing we did was take a walk down to the beach behind the Overleaf Lodge. It was low tide, so we were able to see lots of sea creatures in the tide pools!
STARFISH, everywhere!
FUN ON THE BEACH!
Hunting for agates (an ornamental stone consisting of a hard variety of chalcedony, typically banded in appearance)...they're basically a small transparent rock that are fun to find...
Exploring at the beach...
At Strawberry Hill, Shan found a starfish laying on the sand. We also found lots of agates and saw seals sleeping on the rocks...
We met my brother Brent and his family at Strawberry Hill to look for agates. Jacob and Austin loved throwing rocks!
On our way to Florence to buy groceries, we stopped at the Heceta Head Lighthouse. We were lucky enough to be there when an awesome bi-plane flew over!
Mom fed everyone a delicious spaghetti dinner, then we chilled on the deck! Their house is 2 miles south of where we stayed, and just west of Highway 101...
Exploring on the beach behind Yachats Ocean Road. This is just a short walk from Mom & Dad's house. Day 2 was a fun-filled day on the Oregon Coast!
