We went to the Beach! The Beach! You know? Sand! Water! Canoe? Canoe! Yup, already a week has passed since this last adventure, but I have been so busy keeping up with my dad who is building new stairs going out of the back of the house into the backyard that I haven't had time to report on the ongoings.
Our Dutch friends were camping at Lake Jordan and we had planned on meeting up with them Sunday morning for breakfast at their campsite! Miranda made some very special French Toast for me, and everyone else actually was also allowed to eat a piece or two.
After a very relaxing breakfast we strolled down to the beach (daddy carrying the canoe on his back all the way there), and we set out to play in the water, build sand castles, and canoe out into the lake. Someone kept calling dad about a production order that they weren't supposed to run, but I guess they figured out what had happened in the end (?). Anyway, I had a lot of fun jumping in and out of the water, playing with the boys, and just digging through the sand. It was such a gorgeous day that it was hard to believe that only a handful of people were out there, I mean, afterall there are more than a handful of people living in the Research Triangle Area (1,549,822 people in the year 2000 to be exact (http://www.researchtriangle.org/pages.php?page1=52&page2=71&page3=73&page_id=73) -> that means there only are more today.
Daddy, Bob, the boys and sis paddled out to the nearby Marina to drool over the nice ski boats sitting in the floating docks. Daddy would like soooooo much to have one of those, but we never seem to figure out when we would find the time to seriously take advantage of it - so he keeps promising himself to get one when I am a teenager. I can see that working very nicely actually, he just needs to figure out a way to stay near a Lake until then?!?.
Take care amigos!
