A weekend trip to Manzanita, OR recently allowed us some breathing room. Work has been crazy busy. School is challenging. And life is hectic. But the ocean is perfect. Enjoy these photos and wish you were there. For pics and info on what to eat and where to shop, check this out. 
In regard to coffee, because we don't go far or long without it, we hit Manzanita News & Espresso. I've been to this coffee shop in the past and I've always wanted to return. The baked goods floating around Manzanita are out of this world. You can also get hand-made coffee mugs from local artists and such a variety of interesting magazines. Not at all your typical newsstand.
