This week went by fast and we got out to enjoy some nice weather and a few rainy days. I have been working on my quilt and hopefully, it will be finished next week.
We got out to the island for a walk around the lighthouse after the rain stopped, so it was a nice way to get out and walk on the road and stay out of the wet grass. Always beautiful views and lots of birds.
We also went to the beach a few times, but the tide was always high, so not as much to find, just cool walks on the beach.
Even with high tide, walking along the edge, I find a few things that get thrown up. A large piece of pottery was a big find, it even has the rounded handle on it. I am thinking it was a bean pot.
At home, my feathered friends are alway a delight to see and the bunnies are out more this season.
And the local turkeys showed up and showing off their brood, quite a few this year.
And today we had the boys for the afternoon. We took them on our boats to a little island in the local cove. They loved being able to swim and a picnic on the beach. It was too windy to go to the point, but we were able to paddle a bit in the inner coves to show them the wildlife. Alex found out why you don't lean over in a boat, he and Bill went over, sure wish I had a photo of that, lol.
The kids came over for dinner and finished staining our porch, so now I can do the finish work and put it all back together. I hope you all had a nice week and enjoy the holiday weekend.
Happy Independence Day Debbie. As always, you've been busy - but glad to read that you are mixing your busy with good busy too. Fun finds from the sea. It's probably a good thing I don't live near the sea as my house would be filled with shells and all other kinds of found treasure. ~Robin~
