After not building yesterday, because of the rain and storms, it was good to build something today, and to have kids building, too!
Maddie 10, Avery 9, Alexa 7, and their babysitter Robyn
It’s so nice to have kids and families come back! These girls came back with their babysitter, Robyn, from New York State and Chadham, NJ.
A cloudy day turned into a storm
The clouds this morning gave way to rain, and then the storm came in, with thunder and lightning.
Today was my grandson, Riley’s birthday – he turned three. Unfortunately, the thunder and lightning was very scary (even though I tried to tell him the thunder was saying, “Happy Birthday – BOOM, BOOOM, BOOOOOM!” ) He didn’t buy it.
Another late in the day castle for me
A late in the day castle today for me. But I like to work slowly, no matter what time I get there. Making castles (or sandcastling, as my friend Doug Smith calls it) is so relaxing (once you carry the water, and pull up the sand!) It’s a tactile, artistic effort, and it builds your body, while it soothes your soul <3
a dog castle? yes!
Angelina 8, from North Port, NY teamed up with Adrienne 8, and her brother Riley 6, from Gaithersburg, MD, and made a dog face castle today.
Got to the beach earlier today
My daughter, Michelle and grandson Riley went to the beach a little after 11 today, so I got there about 11:30 today (I haven’t been getting there till after 1 or 2 lately.)
I was able to finish a castle, AND sculpt an alligator, and it felt so good!
