Part II: Memorial Day Weekend at the Oregon Coast
Have I mentioned that I feel overwhelmed at posting all the details of our Memorial Day weekend at the Oregon Coast?
We spent a few hours exploring the trails and tide pools at Cape Perpetua.
Here's a close-up of what Peter and Soren are standing on!

I will take your world as a world-traveler that our starfish are the best. I have always been particularly fond of them!
