We were kind of bored today. We had made lots of plans, none of which came to fruition: day trip to Cape Cod; ferry to George's Island; create lo-carb Marguerita; canoe on the Charles. In the end, I just ran (slow and excruciating) and gardened (dirty but satisfying and beautiful. Nat, ever spacey, helped me weed, and Ben helped, too, trying to earn money for a new Lego set. I even paid Ben $2 to play with my hair. Max is much better at it, but won't do it anymore, sigh), Ned took a walk with Nat, we grilled burgers, and the puppies made a funny little movie (note how clean Ben's floor is!):
Tomorrow we are leaving for a Cape day trip at 8 a.m., in the hope of getting a parking space at Nauset Light by 9:45! I have already made a barfy but huge lunch with nine drinks in it. Ned packed the beach things: swimsuits, wetsuit tops, juggling stuff, goggles, sunblock, hats, towels.
If you're going, look for us. We always go to the left, of course.
