Beautiful Beach Day




We haven't had much of a spring here yet--yesterday was the first day since last fall that we left the house without jackets! It was supposed to rain all day, but Ben was here, so we were looking for something fun to do. I led all 3 boys on a walking trip around Evanston. We hit the comic book shop, the pet store on Dempster, and then went all the way down to Main for a trip to Dave's Rock Shop. There was a litany of complaints after 45 minutes of walking, especially as the temperature climbed (10 year old boys do NOT like to walk), so without anyone noticing, I turned us east towards the beach. The cold water refreshed and improved everyone's mood except for Zen, who promptly fell asleep in his stroller.
