The Leave It To Beaver State

It's official. There's no more "West" to our trip.

















It's only South and East from here.


Our route took us down the west coast of Oregon today. We were hoping to see the highway wind its way down along the shoreline, displaying Oregon's rocky coastline below 90 foot cliffs where the road lies.

Nope.


We agreed today that you could take Boothbay Harbor, ME, Hampton Beach, NH, and most of route 1 from Massachusetts to Maine and stretch it out on the west coast, you'd get Oregon.

This realization came to us after our stop at Cannon Beach, OR though. Here is the home of Haystack Rock. It may look familiar to you as it was used in the movies The Goonies, Kindergarten Cop, and 1941.
