Cannon Beach: Part 1

Haystack Rock
This year we had the opportunity to attend Cannon Beach Christian Conference Center.  Our whole family enjoys this vacation.  It is a time of refreshment and encouragement with other Christians.  Our kids love their classes, teachers and friends.  John and I enjoy having our faith stretched and having time together.  A little bit about Cannon Beach and the Conference Center (CC). 
Cannon Beach is 8 miles south of Seaside which is south of Astoria, OR.  It's a small town that is geared towards tourists. 
There are flowers everywhere and the sidewalks are swept.  The attraction to Cannon Beach is sandy beaches and haystack rock which is the 2nd largest free standing monolith in the world.  The town received its name when someone found a cannon that had washed to shore there.
 Outside of town at both ends is a replica of the cannon that they found and in town there is a replica as well.  The Conference Center is located on the northside of town.  It was started in 1945 by a couple that wanted to offer a place for Christian families to relax.  This has certainly been true for us. 
At the CC they include breakfast and dinner except Sundays which they also feed you lunch.  the rooms have refridgerators, microwaves and a small kitchen sink.  The classes are set up for mornings after breakfast and evenings after dinner.  In addition to all that they have activities that we could participate in and a recreation center.  Our whole family has enjoyed this place.



Cette annee nous sommes alles a Cannon Beach, Oregon.  C'est une petitie village au cote d'Oregon. 
Elle a pris son nome apres quelqu'on a trouve un canon sur la plage.  Il y a un reproduction du canon a chaque entrence de la ville. C'est une village seulement pour les touristes.  Il y a des fleurs par tout et vraiment joli.  Cannon Beach a une attraction principale, c'est Haystack Rock. Dans la ville est un centre de conferences chretien.  Le centre est magnifique.
 Ca commence en 1945 pour des familee qui veut un vacance.  Il fournissent le petite dejeunne et le dinner.  Du matin apres le petite dejeunne et du soir apres le dinner il a des classes.  Notre enfants aiment leur classes et les enseigners.  En outre, il y a des activities et un centre de recreation.  Tout la familee aiment ca place.
