Here Comes the Sun


Finally, after two days of fog and misting rain the sun has appeared. Today the plan is simple. Fun. We want to spend the whole day on the beach. Stretched out in our chairs watching our little minnow play in the sand. Heavenly...don't cha think? Of course there will be the inevitably crazy rush to get that perfect family picture.

Yesterday we loaded up and headed south to Florence. We had bowls of chowder on the bay at Mo's, picked up some items for dinner at the grocery store, and located the perfect trailer whale. Yes, you heard right, we found our trailer whale. On our way home we hit the infamous Sea Lion Cave. OMG. It is incredible. We rode an elevator 205 feet down the side of a cliff into this enormous cave. I was awed by the size of this cave. Huge. Really, really huge. Really cool stuff. Never thought I would utter these words...but I love sea lions. They are bossy, loud and funny. They are playful and lazy. I love the way they torpedo through the water with such grace and beauty. Hard to do when you weigh a ton and inhabit a body that resembles that of a colossal slug.

After the caves we headed back to the trailer and napped and watched movies while the rain continued to pelt our trailer.

Fun in the sun today. Nothing but fun in the sun!
