Sand Hill Cove, Narragansett, Rhode Island

 This morning we slept in and even had our coffee in bed.  With plans to have lunch in Narragansett, we opted to not begin a new section of fencing but take the whole day off.

Arriving early at Mom's, we sorted pictures from an old digital camera that no longer worked.  After a bit of frustration at needing to convert the chosen files, I managed to get the treasured ones onto Mom's IPad.  My favorite:

                                                Marc and Chloe 2015

Lunch was chowder and clam cakes from Iggy's.  Yum!  Then our walk to Sand Hill Cove.  A bit breezy and overcast kept our outing short.

                                 Mom, Scott, Rebecca, Paul and Megan on the new boardwalk.

                                With overcast skies, everything was muted to a similar gray hue.
 
Brianna and I hunted the shoreline for treasures.  Besides numerous shells and rocks we found:
                                                            Horseshoe crab shell


                                            A banded lobster claw.

                                    A chondrocranium of a mature Winter Skate.
                                        (Thank you Google!)


                                                        Brianna 

                                                    Beach roses with THORNS

                                                            Brianna again with a great smile!

Word of the day - argentine.  Meaning the color grey, silver.  The color of the sky today - argentine!

Newlyweds

 I am so, so happy for these guys!   Love you all!  The photos capture the happiness and love perfectly!  And that kid - how adorable and enchanting and priceless!  A simple ceremony in Maine including snow - doesn't get much better than that! Meanwhile Paul and I are still at the marina dock.  Last night I mentioned breaking the washing machine.  Then I thought I broke the toilet (or forgot how to use a marine toilet).  Turns out the water pump died causing the washer to become confused and the toilet not to fill properly.  Ugh.  We have a foot pump for water at the kitchen sink so we made do last night and then went to bed. This morning Paul switched out the pump for the spare we had on board.  Another spare has been ordered and we will grab from Marc's when we get to Palm Beach. (Thank you Marc for being our Amazon drop!) I managed a couple batches laundry and tried to dry some outside but despite being super windy, everythi...

                                        A beautiful ride home - lots of sun, little traffic and clear roads.                                                      Fenway enjoying his "nest" with no Annie or Tallulah.                                                       Sorry Fenway.  Time to go back. As pretty as the snow can be, I have sufficiently filled my desire to enjoy the cold, white, icy stuff.  We left early with the temperature at 31 degrees.    Arriving in RI at 60 degrees - feels like summer! After stopping at the grocery s...
