I’m not sure if this was the last beach weekend of the summer. It might have been. I certainly behaved like it was the end of wearing bathing suits all day.

There was no cooking. Just a fair amount of eating anything I wanted … which oddly didn’t include a single BLT. I got ice cream from my favorite place twice and had bagels every morning. I had plans to run each morning but instead took walks with Ruby May. Despite being at the beach most weekends this summer, it was the first time in a few weeks that all the “kids” were home and it was pretty great.

I’m not quite ready to give up on summer but it feels like the end is near. I guess the upside is that I can transition to fleeces and leggings.

Until next weekend.
