Sand

The beach beckons us regardless of weather and it is the perfect place for a get together with friends. Mammas sit on the blanket chatting while the children dig aiming for China or at least the core of the Earth.  This time, Lukas and Noah devised a different kind of hole - one that was deceptively narrow at the opening but underneath opened up to a vast cavern. Since the sides were a bit delicate, the fashioned a simple machine out of kelp and a plastic bucket powered by biceps. 

I am afraid that we will soon be on Monterey Most Wanted List for removing far too much sand from the beautiful beaches - it is all here in our car, our house, our clothes, our washing machine and our bodies, so please feel free to come and get it!
