Friday, July 26

Tucker came running with a tiny sand crab in her hands and told her mom, “Fill my bucket with water. He needs water.”

Jesse and Ian started a sand dam for holding water.

Tucker joined them after putting her crab in a bucket of water.

Waves threatened the walls, but they kept building.

This one looks like it will do some serious damage.

After awhile they gave up trying to build a dam, and Ian decided to turn Jesse into a mummy.

Cerwin and Jere decided to get wet before we went back to the house.

A few last looks at Friday’s ocean.

That was a fun, relaxing day.

Following showers and putting our beach things away, Jere took Cerwin and me across town to visit Matt and Karen Burkholder at their beach house – and I got to hug my friend Doris Horst – Karen’s mom.

Our evening meal was waffle ice cream sandwiches.
