A Day at the Beach

**** Just a note - I participated in a Show Us Your Roosters Party and then submitted 2 more posts. If you are hopping on to my site to view the Rooster Party, please scroll down 2 posts to view. Thank you! ****

A couple of weekends ago, the kids and I took a drive over to the coast. Our destination was Glass Beach. This beach is filled with many beautiful "rocks". It used to be a dump site and the glass and ceramic has been broken and worn from years of waves crashing, making what look to be small colorful rocks. Over the years, the rocks have been picked over, but it is still fun to look around.

We brought our big bucket of beach toys. The kids tried to make a sand castle but it didn't quite work.




Ethan did a lot of running away from the incoming waves. They were small, but the water was cold!





The kids had fun burying their feet in the sand, only to have the waves come up and wash the sand away.

Waiting for a wave . . .


Aidan took a picture of Ethan and I.

Just as we were leaving, a lady asked if we would like her to take our picture. She was there with her little toddler and husband.







We saw seagulls and crabs. We also saw little hermit crabs and poliwogs in the tidepools.

Lisa, honey, I would put something at the top of this post about the rooster post being further down.

Reason being: bloggers won't know you have a rooster post on.

Barb :-)
