Rain, Rain, Go Away

We're still at the beach, but we haven't seen the sun since Sunday. That stinks. Well, we actually finally saw the sun this morning at 7am. We were at the beach before 9am to soak up the rays. The wind was blowing like crazy, so the only direction we could sit without getting sand in our faces was not facing the ocean. So there we were, bundled up since the breeze was cold, facing the condominium lined street and watching seagulls eat the wayward puffs that flew off the blanket.

We were there for one hour before the sun went behind gray clouds. It hasn't emerged since. But we're making the best of it. We went to the outlets at Rehobeth yesterday and my parents taught us how to play pinochle last night. Today we're all reading our books and playing pinochle while Eli naps.

I'm sitting here typing in my bathing suit, cover-up, sweatshirt, and sweatpants. In the event the sun comes out, I'm ready to go at a moment's notice. For now I'll resist the urge to document the details of this day, i.e walking outside to make sure it's still raining, then coming in and checking the weather forecast to see that it's supposed to rain all day. Stinkin' rain.
