Day 6 - Chincoteague

A much needed day off, mostly for Ed. (I suggested a big push to Florida). Instead we've spent most of the day gently rubbing Burt's Bees all over each other's backs.

The water is getting mercifully warmer as we push south. The beach in Chincoteague is very nice and we even found time to do some much needed laundry using a beach shower - one of the many actions we've done which has elicited perplexed looks and aggressive questions from surrounding toddlers. A simple "why?" comes to mind from a Fronteir Land youth upon telling him about our trip as a whole. (I told him I'd get back to him)

Plans tonight to repatronize the Crab Shack, whose calimari last night receives rave reviews. Then more Burt's Bees and perhaps a tickle fight.

  1. Dear Sweaty Ones,

    Day 2's bloody finger gave me pause, but you've pushed on admirably -- nearly half-way there! Keep working on your lotion techniques and be on the lookout for laundromats in between crabshacks, beach parties, etc. SPv

  2. Ed and Charlie -

    What fine specimens of manhood and strength you are! Man up and lotion each others' backs. You'll grow to like it. Miss you all!

    Love,
    Megan
