The Rock Beach & Treasure!

Yesterday was a low key day, breakfast in town in the morning and then some walking around. We came back and David, Maddie and I painted the kids picnic table. David did pretty well considering it was the first time he's done that. After that we had lunch and then it was time for naps! Finally some peace and quiet.

After naps and some more home improvements that even had the Doc helping with the assembly of Ben's new snow plow, we sat outside while the kids played in the sandbox and ran around. Once the *big* boys were done playing with the snow plow we decided to take a walk to the end of the street where they have access to a Rock Beach. Like our Short Beach, they can only go during low tide. Now when I say access I mean a very step dirt path that requires a rope to hold on to in order to reach the bottom. That was interesting with 5 kids under 3 and under.

The Rock Beach was very cool, we found all sorts of treasures like sand dollars and starfish. Ben even found a baby crab.
