Labor Day 2009

Kevin didn't have to work on Labor Day so we decided to go to the beach. I was a little leery because I thought everyone would be going to the beach and we would spend half the day in traffic. Also, there was a slight chance of rain. Kevin confidently declared, "It's not going to rain." So, off we went. There was no extra traffic, which was great, but we were only 15 minutes from the coast and it was dumping rain. Once we got to Lincoln City though, there was no rain. The weather was actually beautiful. We walked across "D" River, the smallest river in the world supposedly. Really, it was about 10 feet across and ankle deep. No one else seemed to want to cross so we had that side of the beach pretty much to ourselves. The kids could play all day on the beach. We had a really great time. Of course we ate at Mo's but were disappointed in our food. After playing at the beach some more, we headed for ice cream and home. When we got up this morning I asked Zane what he wanted to do today. He said, "I wanna go back to beach." Maybe next week when Grandpa and Grandma Tolman come visit.
