Hello friends!
I am finally back online. We just returned yesterday afternoon from a wonderful end of the summer trip to the beach. It was a perfect time to go. The weather was beautiful! There were a lot fewer people than we are used to. And, we got off season hotel rates, hooray! The ocean was a little out of sorts thanks to Hurricane Danielle. There were severe rip tides and the waves were breaking close to the shore and were extreme. They were too powerful to boogie board in, but we enjoyed getting out beyond the break and riding the waves up as they came in.
We witnessed several beach rescues. I give those young life guards so much credit. That is a very stressful job and they handle it very well!
I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to go to the ocean for a second summer with my family. What an incredible miracle my life is!
Here is a first set of pictures, there will be more to come.
This was the closest thing to boogie boarding Hannah was able to do, pushing herself along in the beach water at high tide.
Scott tried to ride the waves in, but got tumbled several times. He was one sore guy!
Praying that the waves will be kinder to him...
The wave riders
Where did they go?
We can't take a trip to the beach without some sand burying. It always seems to be Scott who gets the spa treatment.
It might kill Scott, but it sure does give Hannah a lot of pleasure!
We made sure to keep the sunscreen on, you can't be too careful in that beach sun!
To be continued...
