The next day began with a morning walk (indeed almost all days did) where I identified my assets
and a stop at Foodies where we saw Eddie at work
before we went to our porch
and watched the car arrive
and slowly from the doors
emerged Kaylen, Rachel, Jeff and Lucy
so that we could go to the beach where the badge collector and Claire set things up
t least with Jen's sister.
Meanwhile, Ben dug a hole
as Jeff told tales
to Sarah
and Suzanne
before checking his email
and Ben's hole
evoked even more emails
as the girls gathered
for some group photos
|
before dispersing to the water (as Jeff continued to read email)
and Sarah got a bucket of water
even as the beach patrol came
and the gulls made their way into our neighbors' food
before Ryan approached
and a game of paddle ball emerged
even as the rest of us enjoyed a beach day of sun and books and conversation
and a long beach walk from which Jeff and Suzanne slowly emerged
