A Castle Made of Sand

It wasn't an original idea to go to the beach. It is 7-8 miles for us to get there, and it took an hour and ten minutes. 70 MINUTES TO GO 7 MILES!!

But, once we got there...what a nice beach day it was. Blue skies, and the temperature was 79F degrees.

Merrick was in the ocean for a REAL long time, while I built the sand castle.

After finally deciding to leave, it took us 41 minutes to get home.

My tummy is better, but there still is a constant sharp pang of pain.

Guest photographer today is my daughter Karen.
