We went to Clearwater Beach today with Nicholas, Trisha, and Christopher. I can't believe the amount of crap that has to be lugged down the beach to keep all of us happy for a few hours. Since my back has been in bad shape, Trisha took the brunt of the load.
Uncle Tim works summers at the beach when school is out and thank God for that. He got his boss to load all of us up (except Trisha who had to push a stroller through the sand) in the all-terain golf cart and drove us down the beach to the perfect spot under a cabana and next to Uncle Tims guard tower. The boys got to climb up on the tower with Tim and then on his break, he took them out on the surfboard. Sebastien thought he was very cool riding the waves and wiping out. He actually had some good balance when he stood. Little Christopher had a ball in the water and just hanging out on the blanket. We would have stayed all day except for my last minute doctor appointment.
