FFF- Beach Memories!

I took this picture (also in my banner) last October when Southern California was going through some terrible fires. The devastation was horrible, but the sunsets were beautiful!

The girls ask me every day, "Is it summer yet?" They know it is coming because we have started to accumulate items for summer fun- inflatables, swim suits,... they KNOW. All 3 want to know if we are going to the "gagoon" (Seaside Lagoon) but I sadly have to answer- "I don't know". Every year we wait to see if they will reopen for the summer (they are talking about closing it to remodel, to demolish and rebuild/upgrade, or to demolish period and let something else take its place). i would be very sad to lose it for good. I spent many summers there myself as a child/teen. We are so fortunate to live 10 minutes from the beach, we should go there more often :) Come on SUMMER!

Some pictures from last 2 summers at the "gagoon" and also summer 2006 bonfire night.

This is a view of the whole lagoon- we had it to ourselves for about 1/2 an hour after it opened one morning- its a saltwater pool right next to the beach- lifeguards, no riptide/waves and fun for all ages (though it could be heated) :)
