Last beach day 2012

Mom decided we'd have one last beach hurrah before school started at the end of August...well, the kids were freezing in the morning, and when it warmed up a little in the afternoon, this is what the beach looked like.  It seemed everyone wanted a last hurrah at the beach, even if it wasn't ideal weather!

So instead of spending a whole lot of time in the water, we went shell collecting,

and explored the gift shop (even splurged a little on some trinkets).  There was a fisherman just outside the shop that had caught this enormous thing earlier in the day and he let us examine it.

And of course there's always the playing in the sand that can save any less than perfect day at the beach!
