• Good morning

  
  

  Had a lovely evening last night.  The tide was low, so we headed out to Slip Point.  We've been told for months it has the "best" tide pools around.  But its a bit of a walk, and your timing has to be right.  I don't know about the best tide pools, but it sure was a gorgeous beach.  The first 1/2 mile of it was pebble beach.  It was hard to walk on--even for Rob who rarely admits defeat.  And then it was jumping from rock to rock on the tide pools.  There used to be an old lighthouse out here, and there's movement to rebuild it, who knows if that will happen.  This community is rarely motivated. 

  
  

  I was impressed by the major BIG muscle shells.  They were abundant. 

  
  

   

  
  

  I was also impressed with the point we were walking around.  It was a HIGH cliff.  The concrete piling down at the bottom used to be part of a cat-walk to get to the lighthouse.  They took it down in 2000 or so according to what I read on the internet.

  
  

   

  
  

  The kids were impressed by the big boulders they climbed up over around and under.   They were always miles ahead of us...does this mean I'm getting old?  *snicker*

  
  

     Aren't they scarrey?  *snicker*

  
  

  And *gasp* a picture of me.  And no those shorts aren't flattering.  *snicker*  But they are extremely comfy.   Tis okay I'm slowly working down weight-wise.  And I'm comfortable with what I look like even if I shouldn't be.  I live a full life, and that is what counts.

  
  

   

  
  

  And last of what I will share--Rainee Grace and her new hair-cut.  She didn't like her bangs--now I don't like them.  *sigh*  They are much worse this morning as they are sticking straight up, what little there is of them. 

  
  

   

  
  

  I'm just glad so far she hasn't gotten her back hair.  Hides the scissors even higher up.
