Squeezing the last drops of summer

The summer is coming to an end and we are trying to get every last drop out of it. School starts in two weeks and I will admit to being very excited about that, but I do love having lots of fun family outings during the summer.

This outing happened to be at Crane Beach. We spent the entire day there, watching the tide move in and then out. We dug our own swimming pool...

 ...and at one point, Bruce recruited the sunbathing lady in the pink hat next to us to help build. She ended up making buckets of sand around the edge of the pool for an hour. Bruce told her she could work at his factory someday.
