Yesterday we took a little day trip to the ocean. It always amazes me that we can have our feet in the ocean in the time it takes to drive from Williston to Minot. Yep, I'm still a North Dakotan in that I always compare driving distances to how long it takes to get somewhere from my hometown.
It was mostly cloudy with random bursts of sun. When the sun was out it was warm but without it, the wind made it chilly. The nice thing about it not being bright sunny hot is we didn't have to worry as much about sunburns. Don't worry, sunscreen was still applied to exposed areas.
I was expecting squeals of delight when Eli's feet touched the water. What we got instead were quizzical stares. He had fun, of course. Nothing beats lunch on the beach. He was worn out, too. He slept the whole way back and then got a taste of my DQ ice cream. What's with the beach making you famished?

Eli's first trip to the ocean = precious. Maybe next time we'll actually go in deeper than our knees. And try for a "tan."
