a day at the beach
11 April 2011 | Wrightsville Beach, NC
Sunny and 71
As we arrived at the beach we were still dressed in what we thought was appropriate clothing. It was sunny, 70 and a sea breeze. The little girl had cordoroy pants, a turtle neck and a fleece. She was running ahead of us... as we crested the top of the walkway we found thousands of people in bikinis and shorts doing all those things we would normally do if it was 15 degrees warmer: surfing, playing catch and laying in the sun... A well tanned guy with rippling muscles walked past us and said, "She looks like she is going skiing!!!"
I took off here fleece, not because it was too hot, so that she wouldn't get it wet. Isobel didn't slow down until she was in the water, charging right into the waves. I had to grab a hand as the first one washed in an knocked her down. Didn't faze her a bit! If I had been more enthusiastic about getting my clothes wet, she would have gone further in...
