Twin Rocks

We're having some beautiful sunny weather for this time of year, so yesterday we decided to take advantage of this with a trip to Rockaway Beach in Oregon.  This is one of my favorite beaches because of the tide pool formations.  It's between Cannon Beach and Tillamook, which are both a lot easier to access, but sometimes I think it's worth the extra drive to get to Rockaway.  I'll post a tide pool photo tomorrow, but I thought I would start today with the iconic "twin rocks" visible from Rockaway Beach.  I'm not really sure why they call them twin rocks, since one has a big hole in it and the other doesn't. But they are definitely a pair, and a distinguishing feature of this beach.

Cool rock formations! And I love the frothy water approaching the sand. I'll have to ask my daughter if we can go visit this one on my next trip to Oregon. Your photo is amazing!

The rocks are fascinating, but it is the green, glassy waves, set against the rocks that really captivate me.
