God's Wonderful, Majestic creation for us to enjoy :)
Dad thought we all needed a break from all the projects going on around here lately and since we had to pick up a freezer in Melbourne it seemed like the perfect time, so we loaded up and went on a search for a secluded part of the Atlantic Ocean,
in Florida,
in August.
Not an easy task,
but one that can be accomplished with determination and prayer.
We found the perfect spot, once again, and the only ones on the beach, were 3 fishermen,

The rest of the beach was secluded.
The Lord delights in blessing His children.
Who will be the first to get into the "Salt Marinade".

Wow, that was great!!
Dad building his traditional sandcastle.
This spot had the perfect sand for building.
(Not too powdery, but not too shelly either.)
Gabriel and Jon digging the moat.
The waves were just right for the littles.
The bigs prefer bigger, but they had a blast anyway.
Christiana and James digging a pool.
The water was great healing for Ariana's foot where she had a pitchfork

It's been swollen and infected for a while, so this was great for it.
