3rd Beach

Today we went to the beach. We started off going to Second Beach (why are they named after numbers I have no idea). As I was starting to unpack the car, a lady and her kids were driving by and stopped to let us know that it was really windy and there was alot of red tide (a type of sea weed... that gets into EVERYTHING). She said they were heading over to 3rd beach. She didn't want me to have to unload and bring my boys all the way to the beach to find this out. So nice of her! I had to go check the beach out anyway as we were meeting Grandma on the beach but at least I didn't have to bring all our stuff. Thank you nice lady... whoever you were!!!

We ventured over to 3rd and had a blast. It was a nice change of scenery. It was much calmer there and its more like a lake. Basically it is the end of the Sakonnet River where it empties into the Atlantic Ocean. We also ran into one of Connor's teachers there and had a nice visit. The boys had fun practicing their swimming and playing with their beach toys. Yes... the trucks made it to this beach as well.

I forgot how much I enjoyed 3rd beach. Last year there were jelly fish and Peter had gotten stung a few times so we stopped going. Seems to be all clear this year. Now its going to be a difficult decision as to which beach we will go to next time. They are just so different! hmmm.

Well hope you had a nice Wednesday... weather is calling for rain tomorrow. Booo!
