A Day at the Beach

Our friends Shannon and Nancy were so wonderful to invite us to visit them during their vacation at the beach at Ocean City, Maryland. The forecast for the day was terrible, but went anyway, and were glad we did. The rain held off and the day was hot, but overcast. The storm surge rolled in ahead of the weather and caused some amazing waves.

Connor and Aidan had only been to a beach in the off-season, so they had never been tossed about in the waves. They were a little scared at first, but quickly gained their courage. By the end of the day, Connor was riding waves having a great time in the surf. Aidan took a more cautious approach, chasing the waves up and down the beach and digging in the sand.











We finished off the day with pizza and margaritas, a walk down the boardwalk and a trip to the arcade.

Mer and Mark Visit DC



Marty's sister Meredith and her husband Mark came to visit for a weekend. We took a trip to Annapolis for the day, enjoyed a harbor cruise around the Naval Academy, and had all you can eat crab and seafood for lunch on the Annapolis waterfront.

After their stay at Club Fisher, Mer and Mark ventured north to Mark's family's winery in Maryland, then on to a Red Sox Game in Baltimore.
