West coast beach

Hello Blog Pals,
As my readers may know I decided to visit Florida to get away from the cold winter weather.  Any good trip to Florida includes a trip to the beach. I'm back from Florida and it's spring so I decided to explore a local beach.
I am at a Cannon Beach.  This area used to be called Elk Beach but in 1922  a cannon washed ashore from the USS Shark and locals began calling it Cannon Beach and apparently the name stuck. 
If you ever saw the movie called "The Goonies" you might have seen this scene.  This is Haystack Rock.  In the movie it was where the kids were rescued.  It's a migrating bird habitat and a tide pool area so it's protected. 
The beach has all sorts of little rivers flowing from the hills to the ocean.

My favorite beach waterfall.  It's called Little Fox Falls.  I named it in honor of myself being that it has a nice little bench and viewing area for me.
As you can see it's quite an elaborate waterfall. 

Time to head back home.  The sun is setting and this fox needs dinner!
