The last day the Degraws were here visiting we headed to Bugge Beach. Travis and Aaron found a large log that was sitting across a rock. It was a natural teeter totter. Of course being the manly men they are they were the first to try it!
After much screaming, the girls kicked off the big boys. Travis bounced them until they were laughing too hard to hang on. With their pink coats and blonde hair these two looked like twins from behind. It was so wonderful how good everyone got along. We are very lucky to have good friends like these!!
Dylan didn't want to play in the water so he started looking for hermit crabs. He found this teeny tiny crab and put it in the Frisbee. As he was playing Cooper came over with two bigger crabs. Then Tobyn found a gumboot colony and Dylan added it to his collection.
Aspen came over to see what Dylan was looking at. She wouldn't touch anything, but kept giggling as they walked around. It turned out to be a beautiful day. I hope they come back for another visit.

I agree. What is a gumboot colony?
A gumboot is a mulluscs that grows on the bottom or rocks in the ocean from Oregon to Alaska. A colony is when you find many growing in one place. They can grow up to a foot in length. They feel like the bottom of a rubber shoe. They can be black, red, yellow and orange. Then center has a spine like feel to it.
