Oregon Coast trip (week of 9/18 - ish)

Super late writing and posting this post since this trip was in early September. Anyways, on our trip, we went to the coast of Oregon near Cannon Beach. We stayed at Manzanita and spend most of our time there. Found lots of marine life when I came out on the beach at low tide and there was a huge rock with tons and tons of barnacles and sea anemones mostly. We have been to this beach many times before and never been to came down when it was that low tide. I remember seeing so many sea dollars at the beach in the early days of visiting the beach but we only founds one or two sand dollars our last and more recent trips only which was sad and makes me wonder why. I also remember one trip we saw a bunch of man of sail jellies (I think) one trip and that trip only. Back to this trip, we also visited Cannon Beach, Seaside, and Short Sand Beach and trails. When we visited Seaside, we went to church, went to lunch somewhere I do not remember, and went to the beach for a small bit but did not see much as I remember. Next, me and my dad visited Short Sand trail and beach. I going to talk about the observations that I found on the trails on the way to and back to the beach. I found lots of mushrooms on the trail which was super fun since it was the most new fungi that found at once at the time. Next is the beach where I did not found anything except for a good size and in a perfect shape purple olive snail shell which I took back to my mom as she requested me to bring her a shell from the beach. Short Sand trails was my favorite part of the entire beach and then Manzanita beach. On the way back home, we stopped at Cannon Beach to wrap up the trip and I did not find much since the tide pools were lowkey off limits and it was super busy per usual. On the road back, I took two observations out of my window of some trees and such. Trip, overall, was super fun and Manzanita in general, is my favorite place in Oregon since I took my first steps on the beach (a little fun fact about me)! Looking forward to next time!
