Cannon Beach

A week at Cannon Beach is a Hess family tradition, and as I think its the most beautiful place in North America, I always look forward to this week.

Aubrey was finally able to bring her dogs to Cannon Beach this year. They loved it!


Sacrificial parenting - that water was freezing! I know where Clay gets his endless love for the beach.


This picture captures what Clay spent hours doing on this trip - collecting and examining sea creatures. His net and bucket are "must haves" for most of our outings.
