Beach Day in September

The weather is perfect for a sandy beach day.  Mild but not too chilly yet, sunny but not hot.  Perfect weather for sand castle building, ocean toe dipping, walking/running on the boardwalk, looking at the shops, and playing on the beach swing set.  We worked up an appetite so we went to Five Guys afterwards.

Smithsonian Zoo Day

Yearly the Smithsonian does a free day to local establishments.  This year we went to the Virginia Zoo with our own wild animals.

15.5 Inches of Rain

Over 3 days we got 15.5 inches of rain.  It rained nonstop for at least 24 hours.  School was canceled for 2 days.  The kids got a lot of fun playing in our front yard while it rained and the following day during an hour break in the storm they went to play in the flooding down the road.
