Surprise Trip to the Beach

We went to the beach on Saturday. This was a little out of the way but we had business in the general area. Otherwise we probably wouldn't have gone all that way for a couple hours of sun and sand. Nate and Sean loved hunting for shells along the waterfront. Nate even found a couple of shells with their occupants still in them! The highlight was when one of the local fishermen pulled in a skate -- not so much for him but the kids thought it was pretty cool.


Sean tried his luck digging through the sand. He wanted to make a hole that would fill with water. He didn't have to dig down too far but then a wave would come and he would have to start over again.


Nate was more into beachcombing. He walked along the shore looking for whatever might be interesting. He climbed out on this jetty into the sea. It was low tide and the plants had dried so it wasn't as slippery as it might look. Nate was fine.
