On Wednesday we headed up to Sea Ranch for four days. It was their first time playing tennis -- on a beautiful court overlooking the ocean -- and we had enough wind to fly kites in front of our house. In between long bouts of eating and reading, we found a nearby beach with a stairwell that ended to a large rock right next to a small waterfall. Very nice! The swimming pool next to the tennis courts was a little chilly, but nothing a dip in the hot tub couldn't fix. Other highlights were building jails for the small black sand spiders, watching the hawks circle the fields, and reading all the Garfield books we brought from the library.
