Beach Bums 2011

Ahhhh, sunrise at the beach. Glorious.

This was the house next door. I really enjoyed watching the wildlife each morning from the deck overlooking the sound.

We alternated our days between laying on the beach and parking it on the sound. This particular picture was taken one day as we relaxed on the sound side of the island. It was really neat to watch the ferries and boats go back and forth through the channel.


Lauren really enjoyed eating the sand.

There were hundreds of these hermit crabs on the shoreline. We also dug for clams and got chased by blue crabs as we waded out into the water each day. The water was so very clear. It was beautiful!

This was our friend's son fishing off our pier. We never caught anything because something kept eating our bait along with the hooks. The good news is we weren't fishing for our dinner so we didn't starve.

Here they are reeling one in...not so much.

The days we were not visiting the sound side we spent our days on the beach. Lauren really loved the water! This was an impromptu visit to the beach the night we arrived to release some energy from our 5 hour drive.

Strange dude we found at the beach.....

This little boy loves the water! He played from sun up to sun down every day. It was so fun to watch.

We climbed the tallest lighthouse in North America.

Good Friends!



And then went to dinner where apparently the smartest person in the world had docked their boat. Go Pirates!



And then watched the sun set on wonderful vacation as someone celebrated marrying the love of their life.

Until next year.......
