I’ve longed to experience Oregon’s rugged coastline in person ever since the 4th grade, when I was assigned to write an essay on Pacific Ocean sea stacks by my social studies teacher. I can remember dutifully tracing the shapes of coastal rock formations from an atlas I discovered at my community library in preparation for the accompanying poster that counted for 50% of my grade.
60 years later, I finally got to see this exquisite landscape with my own eyes, and it was worth the wait. So much so, that I decided to reenact the assignment and create a new poster of my own images.

When we were out west several years ago, I commented Oregon is the best kept secret. It seems everyone talks about California and Washington but wow Oregon is quite a beauty. We were passing through but had the chance to camp right alongside the coast and do some exploring, quite amazing! Thanks for jogging my memory and sharing your “assignment”.

The Oregon Coast is amazing and has no competition from its neighbor states. Oregon’s secret is officially blown.

Oh I’ve always wanted to see Oregon too! My desire came from seeing The Goonies! LOL
Beautiful pictures!

Right you are! Goonies was set in Astoria, and Cannon Beach was featured in a few scenes as was Twilight.
