First Day of Summer

  My children really, really wanted to go to the beach but it was suppose to be around 63 degrees for the high.  To cold for their mother to put on a swimming suit, so we compromised and went to Salt Creek because it was low tide -1.4.  They wore swimming suit and I did not.  They were playing in the waves within 15 minutes of arriving at the beach.  They had a wonderful time playing in the waves and were cold for the rest of the beach trip. 
 Maggie did not like the water.  She wanted to play with the kids but not that bad. 
 
Thomas is wearing gloves because he got stung by a bee during the end of the school year party.  Lizzy and Thomas ran into each other and Thomas fell on a bee.  A one in a million fall.  His hand was really swollen (no piano lessons cause he couldn't move his fingers) so he felt the gloves made his hands feel better.
 They made a big fort and filled it up with water . . . .
 making waterfalls
This is how Henry floated back to the car.  So there is the beach you hike to but there is also a river you follow out to the ocean.
