Yesterday was a gorgeous day out. It was warm, for this time of year, and there was a little bit of a breeze. Andi, Drew, Benton and I went to Ocean City and took a walk on the beach. We picked up seashells so Andi can make a nice little shadowbox for Benton.
We saw what the last 4 day nor’easter did to the beaches and it really made a mess of them. Most of the dunes have been washed away and a lot of the wooden ramps from the boardwalk were closed because of at least a 6 foot drop down to the beach from the missing dunes.
There were a few other people walking the beach using metal detectors, collecting shells and even a couple surfers. I forgot just how calming and relaxing the sound of the waves can be. I could have sat on the rocks for hours and just listened to the waves crashing.
Benton enjoyed his first trip to the beach. We had him bundled up with his little animal/bear hat on to keep his head warm and a warm blanket. But the sun was warm and the breeze wasn’t too bad until we started back up the beach to the car. But other than that it was a great day.
Enjoy the pictures below.
