Things we learned you can do at Oak Island

Just a few of the things we did and learned we could do at the beach.  One of the things we did not learn was that John Paul is gregarious and made friends with the group next to us where two of the men "happened" to be fishing.  Well it was not long until one of the men had outfitted the talkative one with a fishing pole and 

well he caught a fish.  

The fisherman was such a nice guy (must have found his hat) and had the other kids sharing a chance to fish as well.  Isaac and Luke caught fish.

We learned how to sit in chairs at the beach at low tide.

We thought this was a good idea.

The kids and Matt built huge sand structures.  Complex engineering structures, well-built structures.

and played on them.

This being the beach and sand being sand, and a new day being, well, new.

 And new plans meant a different structure was built.

And tides doing what tides do made, this one a lot of fun too.

Sand bars are great places for tossing a football.

And as the tide rolls in for sitting and talking

or sitting and answering questions.

Beach shopping is an important part of going to the beach.

 And "keep away" is such a great game.
