Hello, Beach Chickies! I've been off-line for four days. My DS and I went "home" to New England for the annual Blackstone River Kayak and Canoe Race! Boy, was I slow -- terror will do that to you. But the rapids were small, and I didn't tip over. Of course, leave it to me to go to a kayak race and get a prize -- for driving the furthest
We managed to stay close to plan the whole time -- an amazing accomplishment with relatives offering food every second! We did go to the Moonlight Cafe for weenies one evening -- sort of a tradition. But aside from that and too many pistachios on the road, we stuck in there. We're really rather relieved to be home and decided to Phase I for a few days -- more from the relief from too much salt in the "commercial" foods than anything else. Seems like even the "legal" foods are super-salted. Can't wait to go out o the lake here again!
Survived the Kayak Race
What a great accomplishment! 
Ruth, sunburn wasn't a problem. Frostbite...now that was a possibility!
