Sea Ranch Fun




We all had a wonderful week at Sea Ranch at the end of July. Everyone was there (16 in all! - next year 17 , as Heather & Marcos are expecting a girl in 2009). We spent a lot of time at the beach and also went to the river one day. Rose had her first bout of poison oak and I got to visit the medical clinic (only 2nd time in 20+ years) after cutting my finger/fingernail through with a knife. I also found the largest abalone shell this year :)

Making the sea anemone squirt.

Sage and Rose looking at all the living animals in the tide pool.

Max checking out the water temperature. The kid had no fear of the water.

Uncle Anthony caught a cool eel.

Sage and Rose pondering how I found a such large abalone shell down in the tide pool and wondering if perhaps there were more and how could they get them.

Uncle KK and Rose looking for abalone and other cool sea things.

Swishing in the River.

Uncle Kedrick, Uncle Karson and Max scoping out the frogs.

Rose and Sage counting how many frogs the caught at the river.

The family crashed out after a fun day at the beach.

Tara and John - we had a pounding party for them (everyone got them a pound of something)

Max digging in the dirt and finding rocks.
