As a Midwestern girl born and raised I’m used to cold and snowy winters. Travelling the Pacific Northwest has afforded me the opportunity to experience a different kind of winter. One without subzero temperatures and 3 feet of snow. Although this part of the country does get more wet and rainy weather we experienced a few beautiful days in Oregon. On our way to Seattle we decided to take advantage of the warm air and sunshine and made a detour to the Oregon Coast.

Our destination was the small town of Seaside, OR. While walking the streets and checking out the sights we discovered a kite shop. I picked out our lucky kite and headed for the beach. Chris and I had a BUNderful time flying our kite and wading in the water of the Pacific. If it was a few degrees warmer I may have even went for a swim.
