Inside joke with my post title. Kerrianne was the first who said it (“I want to go to the beach – beach, beach!”), Kenny exaggerated it, he and Nate put it to practice and the rest of us followed! For the rest of the week, anytime anyone uttered the word “beach” we’d all call out “beach, beach!” 
It’s just one of those interesting, little sidenotes that added fun to our family reunion.
So this post is mostly all pictures (of course!) of our time at the beach. We were there nearly everyday! Who wouldn’t, when it’s only a short walk away in your backyard? We had morning jogs and evening walks on the beach, football games, boche games, and kite flying. But most of all, swimming and playing in the waves! I was so proud of myself when I finally got the hang of boggy boarding. I began to beat everyone back to shore in our little “races” we had! (in our family, we can make anything competive)
Kenny and Walter’s Canoe Adventure
We brought our canoes with us on the trip, just in case we’d want to go canoing out on the ocean or Sound. Honestly though, after seeing the hugeness of those waves, I think most of us chickened out! Walter however, still wanted to give it a go just for the heck of it, and Kenny accompanied him, a guy who’s always game for anything a bit crazy.
Once out on the water, Kenny, Walter and the canoe looked so tiny compared to those huge waves! It was very amusing for us onlookers to watch – they capsized twice! It was hilarious.
It’s so weird, though, to come from the beach, a seemingly endless summerland, to Providence Glen, where we’re experiencing definite Fall weather! It was rather a shock at first, but now that I’ve had a bit of time to adjust, I’m loving it! Autumn is, after all, my favorite season.
Have a great day!
