Unfortunately by the time, we managed this the sun was mostly behind the clouds and the wind was stronger by the water. The empty beach house was depressing despite the next-door neighbors Rick and Shanda who welcomed us.
On the beach, I sat and completed the day's crossword puzzle, Madison made a half-hearted attempt at building sandcastles, and Darcy wandered the shoreline. When the sun was out the weather was perfect and we could lean back in our chairs and turn our heads upward.
When the sun disappeared behind the clouds and the wind picked up it was just too chilly for us in our shorts and skirts. The girls did well to keep warm by moving around.
Darcy quit first and she went into the beach house to read. Madison and I lasted another hour before admitting defeat to join her. The emptiness of the beach house was too sad and so we left.
That's when it hit us...vacation is coming to a close...
