The Beach

We have some very close friends, Dennis & Beth, that let us use their cabin down at the beach just south of Westport. Thanks to them, we had a splendid weekend with my brother Alan and his wife Chrissy. Rare when they are able to come out here from Colorado, sans daughters.

First night together found us in Seattle at Safeco Field to watch the Red Sox and M's duel it out. Turns out this would be the last time bro and I would see Manny play in a Red Sox uniform.



Bro, Me, and Karine at the game...









Day one at the beach hunting the waterfront for kites!
Pre-dinner festivities. Cap'n Al and his First Mate, E-Dogg. "Did you say another beer?
Aye, Aye Skipper!"
Always clowning around, even while working with flammable materials. I'm grillin' up some ribs for the feast of epic proportions.
Out at the beach flying some kites. I bought one of those stunt kites you operate with two hands. Pretty rad! Kinda hooked on it. Another hobby?
I demonstrate to Alan how this thing works. "First off, you have to disconnect your head from your neck..." Talk about sore neck from looking up for two straight hours. Could fly that thing for hours.

Saturday - rain and fog. Welcome home, bro!! Driving around the cranberry fields. Can you say 'Ocean Spray?'

Ah the weekend comes to an end. Lovely sunset on Friday.
