The family, including Gramma and Richard, went to the Big Island for Sam's birthday. Really, his 6th was a great reason to take Ben for the first time, and revisit the experience we had with Sam when he turned 2. That was four years ago already, hard to believe. Visiting the volcano island is always a special experience.

Up by Kalama Beach Park there is a LOT of driftwood right now. People have built forts with it, and as we passed this long bamboo pole I found myself just itching to get it home...somehow. I rigged it up in the stroller with my bungee cord (always keep one handy on the "roof rack"). It's about 10 ft long I think. I got a lot of funny looks - more than usual - as we ran down the beach and then through town. But now I totally understand the pride a boy feels in finding and hauling such a trophy home.

Ben, Gramma and I went to Sea Life Park today, the first time in a long time. I feel like I'm somehow cheating on Sam if I take Ben out on an adventure while Sam is in school. I talked it over with Sam this morning and he said it would be ok provided I took him sometime later. So off we went, and I bought annual passes for us so we could head down after school sometime. Every time I go to SLP it is a great adventure. Today's highlight was a scuba diver (woman) feeding the rays! She came up really close to the glass so we could see her hand feed shrimp into the ray's gaping mouth. They were so gentle with her, giving kisses, coming to her when motioned to. It was so fascinating.

These tide pools emerge in the winter when the sand is relocated by the north swells. It's a tad chillier for swimming, but when you're jumping in and out, working hard, you hardly notice it in the warm afternoon sun.

A lifeguard found this guy on his back, on his tower ramp. Way up a steep embankment. We have no idea how he ended up there, but the lifeguard was able to carry him back down to the beach and he seemed just fine once he got in the water. How incredible! He was about 2 1/2 ft long from nose to tail. Gorgeous, healthy guy as far as I can tell.

Sam tackling his homework after school in the face of 50mph gusts. He is holding his papers down while he finishes up. He wants me to come about 15 min after school gets out so he can get it all done and be free and clear when he gets in the truck.

The kids ran about half the hike uphill, then almost all the way down hill! They were so funny, barreling downhill with people parting the way so they could plow through. Tamara and I were trying to keep up, then all of a sudden one of the little ones would sit right down in the middle of the small road and play with rocks in the crevices of the asphalt! No one got hurt, miraculously!
