Delaware bay

We woke up early this morning so that we could investigate the nearby beach n Delaware bay.  It was filled with shells, birds, and horseshoe crabs.  We found out later that this area and this time of year is the most important breeding season for the crabs.  We are glad about that because we saved a few dozen of those that had become stranded on the beach!

Up the coast we go

Well, we finally had to let Debbie get back to work, so we reluctantly left Yorktown this morning. 

We wound our way up the east coast of Virginia, through Maryland and Delaware where we stopped at a beautiful beach.

Then we hopped on the ferry which took us over to New Jersey...

where we had a delicious dinner...

found a charming bed and breakfast...

took a stormy beach walk....

and finished the day with ice cream!

Late night swim

We ended our wonderful day yesterday with a cool swim at Debbie's pool...ahhhh...

Going to see Debbie!

Kristin and I are on our annual trip to see Debbie.  We are missing Becky, but have decided to have her share in our adventure through the eyes of Curious George, who will take her place as we travel.  (He is cute, but not half as nice as Becky in person!)


Here are a few pics from day one...
