Day 2 -- Strawberry picking and the beach

Our goal was to leave the house at 9:00 and we left by 9:35--pretty darn good for this group! Everyone love picking strawberries at Gridzich Farm and then yummy apple slushies. We got to the beach at lunch time, got out of the car and bundled up! It was cold. But by the time, we unloaded and got set up, the cold had burned off and it was a great beach day. Muriel, David and Heather joined us--but didn't make it into any of these shots.
The picking crew... We picked about 20 pounds of strawberries!



The kids spent most of their time digging this huge hole.


It was Mary Elizabeth's first time at the beach. She hung out with Dad and did not care for the water! Period.

Did you all make jam with the strawberries? I bet a strawberry pie or smoothie would be delicious. Great that their season lasts longer than ours!
