A couple of fun days with lots of kids...

Thursday we got to spend the day with Richard & Nancy and their 3 grandkids; Mason, Sawyer & Arden. We took a trip into Portsmouth to see the Albacore Submarine Museum, the kids ran through the submarine 3 times, squeezed into the cramped sleeping quarters and took turns driving it and peeping through the parascope. We then drove over to Kittery, Maine to spend a bit of time at Fort McCleary. The kids spent some energy running and jumping over rocks or anything else in their path.
On Friday, (while Mike flew to Florida) we drove to Richard & Nancy's camp - about 1 1/4 hour drive west of here. Scott & Holly and Mark & Sarah were there along with Richards dad (Jack), and brother & his wife (Ed & Audrey). We left home in the morning while it was raining, but the weather soon cleared up and we enjoyed a day at the 'beach'. Kate sure loved being in the water, and the kids had fun kayaking, swimming and building sand-forts.
