At The Beach
Yesterday I could not post as I left early and came back late.
I had not been on a beach in several years. It was wonderful.
We did not go in the water because of the red tide. However, you can have fun just wading in the surf and looking for shells.
My son started finding sand dollars. He taught me how to make sure they were not alive. He won't take anything live and I am so thrilled about that. I don't like to but never knew how to tell. I had never found a whole sand dollar - just pieces.
When I started looking for them, I found three. He had about a dozen. I had one cruble in my hand. That let the doves out. Did you know there are pieces inside the sand dollar that look like doves? I had forgotten.
We also found other shells but I already had lots of them at home.
On the way to the beach David showed us some porpoises jumping in the bay. I did not know we had porpoises. I had been led to believe that all we had were Bottle-nosed dolphins.
It was a fun day and I am going back by Wednesday. It would be fun if I could find someone to keep the cats so I could stay until Saturday. Let me go see if I can find someone. LOL
