Friday in the Colonial Beach Area

By 8:30 all of us, except Doloris, left for a bike ride around the area!  We wanted to see the same sights we saw on our last ride since we enjoyed it so much.  Back for breakfast and then Sam and Kathy were on their way back to PA by 11:00.  They have a wedding to attend on Saturday afternoon.  We were sad to see them leave.

 

Martins and us decided we would like to head to a beach area since today was the most sun we have seen since arriving last Sat.  I called a local winery that was located near a place called Sandy Point to ask if they had a public beach area.  Susan Albert, who works at the winery was so kind and helpful.  She said there is a small public beach area but that her sister has a home right along Sandy Beach with a private beach area, so we should just park at her house and enjoy her beach.  Wow!  Sandy doesn't even know us!  So, we drove about 45 minutes to Sandy Beach and there were 2 cars in her sister's driveway.  Called Susan back and she recommended we park at her brother's house which was 2 houses away from her sister.  Then she said we should walk down the beach to the primitive area and look for sea glass which is often found there.  Ken and I were so excited for we have always wanted to find sea glass and have never been successful.  So, as soon as we got there, we headed to the primitive beach area and began our search.  BINGO!!!!  We found about 40 beautiful pieces.  What a day!  Only bad thing was the biting flies, but when you are on a sea glass search, you can overlook the pain!!!!

Back to the CG to play some cards, have a fire for cooking chicken, then more cards.  It was a victorious night for the men.  (We have to let them win some of the time!!)
