While I enjoyed a morning run, Caleb and Grandma made a run of their own. They went out in search of beach toys and the best glazed doughnuts one has ever tasted! They succeeded in finding both. They surprised Papa at his office, with one of the doughnuts, before making their way home with an entire basket of beach toys! After packing everything we could possibly need at the beach, including a picnic lunch, we headed to the lake. We arrived to find we had the entire park and beach area to ourselves. How wonderful! On the horizon, two freighters were visible. It was a beautiful, sunshiny day and the water was just right for dipping your toes. When he wasn't digging in the sand, Caleb gathered stones and tossed them in the lake. I found two Petoskey stones as I walked the water's edge, still one of my all time favorite things to do. After collecting our beach gear, we made our way up the ramp and back to the playground where we enjoyed our picnic lunch in the shade of an evergreen tree.
