At one point, I said to my husband, the only thing they haven’t thought of is binoculars and he laughed and pulled out binoculars he had found on the shelf under the coffee table. We had a lovely time playing with our son on the beach, kayaking up the shore, sitting around the fire pit, cooking and relaxing on the porch swing. None of us wanted to leave, it was so peaceful!
