Today was a fairly uneventful day. We woke up to a cloudy sky and an average chance of rain at 65%, so we decided to rest today and spend most of it inside the house. Dad (and Lily for some of the time) went fishing again, he caught 4 small fish and 1 large bass today. Jeremy did homework for most of the day except for when he and Ronnie went to the hardware store. Rhonda, Mom, and I (with the help of everybody else at various times) put together a 1000 piece puzzle that was h
ere in the house. When we finished it was only missing 3 pieces, which is good considering we thought there were a lot more missing. We had Jeremy's homemade BBQ for supper (delicious!!!!) and an apple dessert. After being in the house all day we decided to walk on the beach this evening. I spent quite a bit of time catching sand fleas (cousins of shrimp) and getting SOAKED in the process. We then made it just in time to hear the National Park Service weekly "Ghost stories by Campfire on the Beach." It was educational to hear about the history of pirates and privateers but there were no Ghost stories involved. There was the funniest little boy in the crowd who asked the park ranger lots of questions and at one point while she was trying to build the fire he said, "Park Ranger, do you know what you are doing?" She didn't dad had to help her. A quick dip in the hot tub finished off the evening.
Tomorrow we are going to get Jennifer (Jeremy's sister) in Norfolk; at which time we will be able to "begin having fun."
