Take the drive. Enjoy trips with your kiddos. Plan vacations often!
Yesterday we took a trip to Heceta Beach in Florence, OR. Never being to a west coast beach I was pumped! The trail to the beach was incredible, the view was amazing, and the sand was warm on my toes! It was so much better than I imagined! Being on the coast is a great feeling. All your worries seem to wash away with the breeze, everything is awesome and there’s just so much joy in the air. My mind was so clear!
Being able to take a vacation this year has been a huge blessing! The west coast will always have our hearts and now I feel like the beach will always be calling my name. Just to give you a perspective of where we were, the red dot below is exactly where we were and the little blue dot is where we started from. So it was definitely a great drive! The mountains, the Umpqua River, the cute little beachy towns and the best part….THE VIEWS!! There’s nothing else out there like the views we’ve been able to see. So if you are ever in Oregon, take a drive to the coast!!!

Fun fact: Heceta Beach was platted in 1915! How neat to know such a beautiful area has been around for over 100 years!? Additional fun fact: This is only my second time being to a beach!
