Labor Day @ Castle Island

I keep telling myself that summer doesn't officially end until the 3rd week of September, but Labor Day weekend is definitely the psychological close of summer for many of us. The weather was great so we headed out to enjoy this last unofficial morning of summer.

Castle Island is one of my favorite spots in Boston, and I am always amazed that this idyllic place is only a 20 minute drive from our house! We got there before 10am and started out with a long walk along the jetty around Pleasure Bay.


It was windy so we got to watch some kite surfers,



The tide going out was so cool.



We even got a couple of good family pictures!!




We had a picnic lunch on Castle Island, which is so beautiful with water all around you. It was a perfect spot to end very fun morning!


Goodbye, Summer 2011! You have been the best one yet, but I know they are only getting better from here :)

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

Summer Nights

As we hit the end of July we are relishing the relaxed summer nights around here. Walks to the corner store after work- Kitten snoozes in the window- Playing outside after dinner- And after dinner bike rides in the park aplenty. The best part is when they ride down the "big hill" out of the woods and we make the loop home. These are the days.

The context for this post is that S&Z started two weeks of daily swimming lessons in the outdoor town pool on Monday. The beginning of this week also happened to start with two of the coldest days of the summer!
