Rainy & Cloudy Day at the Beach

Today's forecast was rainy and cloudy.  The girls started the day with a bit of summer homework.
 Then we all played a few hands of UNO.
 We rounded out our morning with a game of Skip-Bo.
 It only rained in the morning, so after lunch we headed into town to do some shopping.  Julia wanted (and found) a Block Island sweatshirt.  Evelyn needed (and found) a swim shirt.  We also found some postcards and a magnet - the usual souvenirs for us Lusters.
 After shopping, we headed over to Ballard's Beach, on the south side of the Old Harbor ferry dock.
 The wind and stormy weather made for some incredible waves.  If it hadn't been so chilly, we would have stayed until the sun went down, watching the tremendous waves crash against the jetty.
 After eating out for supper, we took a stroll along Kid Beach, to see what the waves looked like there.  Not as impressive as along the jetty, but certainly bigger than what they were a couple days ago.
