As we drove Grammy's Valentine to the airport, Ted looked out across the San Francisco skyline and asked what we were going to do for the rest of the day. We weren't sure.
The sky was full of big, dark clouds with patches of bright blue sky and streaks of yellow sunshine in between. Ted declared that the day wouldn't be more beautiful even if it was clear and warm.
And he was right. We let the breeze blow us, and found ourselves drawn (as usual) over the green hills to the ocean, near Half Moon Bay. Even though it was high tide, the beach was full of treasures- iceplant, half eaten purple crabs, turban snail shells, holey rocks, sea plants, hermit crabs, limpets, gulls, cypress trees, clean sand, mussel shells, waves and salty spray. It was lovely. Julian attempted to shove all of the aforementioned items into his mouth.
Zoe and Grammy practiced their synchronized swimming routine on the beach.
Polygenerational twins? perhaps...
