In no time at
all we shook off the travel heebie jeebies
and settled in with our son and his
family.
The grandkids and
their mom and dad were more than glad
to show us the California way to enjoy a day.
We were soon hauling
all the stuff needed---
--for a day at the beach.
(Insert the
sound of rolling waves, the call of sea birds plus a little “Surfin’
U.S.A.”)
If you’re
familiar with “Calvin and Hobbes” you’ll understand this boy.
His dark-haired
sister danced in the waves. (“Dance,
Dance, Dance”)
She’s the
gymnast in the family and is looking forward
to watching that part of the
Summer Olympics.
The oldest
sister is a fish like her dad. She took
on the waves and laughed at them.
Grandpa enjoyed
the sunny day and the view that came with it. (“Help Me Rhonda!”)
They built an
awesome sand castle.
It was just high
enough on the beach to survive the incoming tide.
(more wave
sounds and “Good Vibrations”)
When the tide
went out there were tide pools to explore.
(“Fun, Fun,
Fun”)

Oh, how wonderful is that. A little slice of heaven. Glad to see and hear you're making the most. The grandkids are so cute. Makes me want to go for a swim in the sea. Doubt it will be as warm in western Canada when I jet set there next week. Doh!
