and left the umbrella and boogie board
for the trip. Then we noticed the milk
that had arrived the day before and sat in 98 degrees all day which was unfortunate but Carolyn and Lucy arrived
to lift our spirits away from this darkness
so that we could pack the car
and travel on until the train came
to Point Pleasant to block our progress.
After the short delay, we quickly parked the car
and spoke to the ticket seller
before finding parking down the street
and bringing our worldly possessions to the beach where Nathaniel and Benjamin
dug a swimming pool while Jane, Kaylen and Lucy swam
and we admired the sand castles
that had gone before. The girls kept swimming
as the fortress grew
and the digging continued.
But before long, everyone
was hungry, so we got a dining recommendation
and used the facilities but this sign
kept us honest about not changing our clothes as we headed down the boardwalk
to this place
where the hot dogs
and cheese fries
and nuggets
and world's worst calzone
made it easy to qualify
for the clean plate club.
After a lunchtime picture on the boardwalk,
we went back to wave jumping

by the girls. There were a few things that had to be recorded like this lady's hat
the life guard's stand
the girl's card game
and this guys NY Yankees ink
before we decided to take our umbrella out of the crowd
and head off to the boardwalk where I could achieve great wonders at SkeeBall
(a score so high it has to be blanked out) and the girls could win
valuable prizes.
On the way back, there was no train
and so this was the intersection to be recorded.
