Beach again

Maybe it's because I grew up in Columbus, Ohio that I just can't seem to get enough of gazing at the snow capped mountains and the water. Jonah and I went to another beach today. I decided to drive 20 minutes north on I-5 to go to Shoreline beach. It sounded nice, but it really wasn't quite as nice as Golden Garden beach, which is only about 10 minutes away. It still was beautiful, though. Again, the tide was low so we got to see all sorts of rocks and shells and creatures. A woman told me yesterday that the tide was the lowest of the year. So, I'm glad we saw it again.

I got my camera back today, so I'm uploading a bunch of photos to make up for the past few days.

Somehow Jonah found the one sippy cup on the miles of beach

Bread at tonight's restaurant. Their crust was a little better than my crust, but my bread tastes better than the restaurant's bread

A little drawing before dinner arrives. This was a "we don't have any high chairs" restaurant. They scrounged up a paper bag so the kids could draw on something; I brought the crayons.
