the ocean

Beach blankets, lots of snacks, buckets, shovels, boots, 1 trusty kite, and 3 boys. It seems like a short list but it sure fills up the car. In lieu of my nasty condition, we missed our camping trip to Lopez Island, but made up for it a bit by heading out to Westport for the day. I love the ocean. The sound, the smell, and the sand. Oh the sand. And the surfers, of course. The people watching in general. I love our kite, it is the easiest kite to fly but most impressive with a dragon tale that is at least 30 feet long. I love sandy sandwiches and rigged up beach shelters, and babies falling asleep on beach blankets.
