The Beach

While there was some nice warm weather up here me and Missy took a couple trips out to the beach. It's only about 1.5 hours away, and it was nice to do something aside from sitting around the house waiting for new job posts and or phone calls for interviews (which haven't been happening very often).

We packed a nice simple picnic lunch, picked up a sack of wine in a box (known as boxed wine) and headed out onto the open road. The first beach we went to was in Westport ... lot's of fun drift wood to play on (people had even built cool little forts with it). We built sand castles, sunbathed, gathered shells, tried to body surf and explored the nearby jetti for marine life. The ocean was cold, but it was worth getting used to cuz we had a grand old time.

The second beach we went to the following week was not nearly as cool. The weather was warmer, the ocean was colder and vehicles were allowed on the beach, which in my opinion was an eye sore and an annoyance. It was funny watching people get their cars stuck in the sand though.
