Lazy Days of Summer

We did it! We made it to the beach with our friends Mark and Jen for a Sunday evening picnic. One of the benefits of living in Southeastern Connecticut is the proximity to the seaside. Although it is only a 20 minute drive to some beautiful Rhode Island beaches, we don't seem to get there enough. But we did today. The skies were cloudless, the ocean temperatures a balmy 71°F (!) and the diminishing crowds meant no traffic and a peaceful evening on the beach. We swam, strolled and had a nice dinner. Thanks to Mark and Jen for getting us out there!
