Memorial Day at the Beach.

For Memorial Day we set out to Silver Sands Beach in Milford, CT to enjoy the weather and the holiday.

Charlie literally enjoying the Silver Sands for lunch.




The beach is connected by a causeway, or tombolo I guess they call it, to Charles Island. Fitting name, as always.

Although covered in high tide, the tombolo is exposed during low tide, and you can walk out to the island and explore. The girls loved this.



Guns.





We had a great trip, although John's ankles didn't fair too well. They were neglected the sunscreen treatment and not only burned, but swelled like nothing I've ever seen before. He could barely BARLEY get his crocs (crocs! the loosest shoes ever!) on for work. Four days out, and they are still swollen. Poor guy.
