(Manzanita, Oregon) – There s a bit of a rumor, or maybe it s a legend, going around that Manzanita is the “Banana Belt of the north Oregon coast.” It s talked about a little by locals, and it seems to have gathered a little more steam in recent years, but it feels like maybe that old north coast saga of spooky Bandage Man: it builds up in bits and pieces until someone debunks them.
