Earlier in the week, today's forecast looked good.

All that changed yesterday morning.

Still, a plan is a plan.

With the holiday weekend approaching, full of other happenings, and school starting next week, this was our last chance, especially as a family.

I like the beach no matter what. Jeff is less enthusiastic about overcast skies, a little rain and a strong, cold wind.

We sat there with our books. The boys played in the sand. We had the place to ourselves, for the most part.

The waves at high tide were spectacular.

A few, brave surfers out there. We had our picnic lunch. There were lots of boats to see.

I don't think that the day was wasted. What's the alternative, be at home?
