Alsea Pacific Beach House

4th of July is awesome at the beach house. The town of Waldport places collection cans for fireworks each year long before the 4th. They clearly reached the financial goal to perform and incredible display on July 3rd (don’t ask). We had a bond fire on the beach and sat back at about 10pm to enjoy a fabulous fireworks show just 100 yards from us—it was amazing! The seals that regularly rest at the end of the spit were thrown for a loop when the fire department showed up at their “sleeping spot” to set up the works. But the show was a huge success and I think the seals will find their way back in a day or so. Good job people of Waldport!
