Carkeek Park

We met friends at the park today to explore the tide pools at low tide.

Alex and Cole playing baseball with some boys who were on a field trip to the park.





This was not posed, Cole is just cool like dat!



The "Bubbleman" was there. Audrey was adorabubble chasing the bubbles down with dad. Audrey then had to go home with dad for her afternoon nap.



The Bubbleman in action.



Exploring at low tide.



Gently touching a crab, he also found a sea anemone.



One must dig!



Playing in the incoming tide with friends.



The salmon slide.



Playing a game - don't step on the pottery sea creatures embedded in the rocks.



So much running around caused Cole to doze on the drive home so I got some reading in while watching Cole sleep in the van and Audrey sleep in the Subaru. I'm reading Three Cups of Tea loaned to me by another co-op mom.

We finished up the day with a bike ride to a neighborhood park and home for bed by 7:30. Cole wasn't asleep until 9 though - ah, summer....

At the park we met a 5 year old boy who was riding a "pocket motorcycle". Cole was captivated and mused aloud that he "should try that someday." NO WAY!
