Long Weekend

We've just returned from our annual Father's Day surf trip.  Most years, we head down to the Oregon Coast, to celebrate the Mister by doing what he loves best. Usually Summer Solstice and International Surf Day fall on the same weekend, giving us further cause to celebrate.  (This year the dates didn't line up.)  We used to rough it, and camp for the weekend, but these days, we tend to rent a house.  I suppose that means we're getting older, but it saves getting soaked in the rain showers.

Here's a bit of what we got up to:

Surf checks...


...fun and games...

 ...wave jumping...


 ...ladybug love...


 ...bodyboarding Kiddos, with the Boy showing the Girl how it's done...


 ...a little mermaid action...


 ...pure bliss.


Ah.  That's the stuff.


Happy Summer Solstice to you.


And Happy International Surf Day!

PS - Back tomorrow with a recipe.  And guess what...the season's first CSA box has arrived!  It's that time again!
