After a near DSS visit I loaded the kids in the car and headed to Wood Neck Beach. It is a resident only beach in Falmouth and will always be my favorite. My Nana took me there when I was little and I even had my senior pictures taken there in High school.
There is a little side river that is shallow with sand bars at low tide and it is the perfect place to catch crabs so bring your net. We had a bucket with about 30 mini hermit crabs. The family next to us had multiple nets and had real crabs.
I joked with the girls that it was going to be called crabby beach because it is the place where we collected crabs and also where we lost our crab (meaning Ava's attitude). Of course now they thought this was hysterical but at home everything was a crying whining nightmare. I may just set up a tent and live at the beach.
At about 3:30 I noticed a missed call from my Mom. When I called her back we set up a plan to pick her up(she does not have the required beach sticker) and she came back for about another hour in the river. It turned out to be a great night. We ended with a bit of food shopping and an ice cream.
Summer is flying by so you have to grab these moments when you can.
