Spring Break Day Two

We woke up to sunshine early Wednesday morning and the boys and I decided to take a walk to the tidepools at Haystack Rock during low tide.

Haystack Rock at really low tide

Unfortunately, the sun didn't last and it started to rain about halfway there. It's about a 25 minute walk on the beach to the Rock. We trudged on hopeful to explore the rocks and see some sealife. Apparently it was even too miserable for little ocean animals, because the tidepools were all empty. We were pretty disappointed, but even more wet. Thankfully, we were able to call Chris and he came to pick us up on the other side of town.

But the wet weather didn't get us down. We spent the afternoon drying our clothes and shoes and playing at the Conference Center gym.

Charlie loved mini-golf!

Maggie didn't feel well all day and after supper Amy headed back home to Portland. We were sad to see them leave.

After they left, we checked out the fire department burning down a beach house up the street, the boys went back to the gym to play in the community basketball game, I sewed for a while, (you can check out my sewing adventures at my Wee Little Things blog), went to ice cream and went to bed.
