The OregOn COasT June 11-17, 2017 Cannon Beach We went with my parents and the Esplin’s to the Oregon Coast. We had been to most of these places in 2015 with the Maisey’s and had such a good time that I wanted to take my parents. We stayed in a rental in Lincoln City for the week. There are so many things to do on the Oregon Coast. A couple new things we did on this trip that were highlights is check out Astoria and hike the Drift Creek Falls Trail. The weather can always be tricky coming to the coast but we’ve been lucky for the most part. We have fond memories of this area and will visit frequently. There’s always something new to try!
