Hot Weather = Boat on the Water

We're into another span of warm weather.  It's been in the 90's for the last few days.  That's hot for around here!  I love the warm weather!  But I don't like how warm it gets in our house.  Thank goodness for a couple of cheap, window air conditioners that help to cool things off upstairs!  

One way to beat the heat is to head out on the water.  That is just what we did Sunday.  We put the boat in at Point Defiance (and then had to quickly change the water pump at the dock...oops!)  Then we decided to head south to Cutts Island.  We have been by there before, but never stopped.  And we knew the kids would like the beach to play with their toys.  It was an exceptionally low tide (-3.1) so there was a lot of beach to explore.  



Cannon and I took a hike around the small island, which was a pretty cool place.  

The views were awesome.  Nothing a camera could do justice!  



The boys found a rope swing, too!


We headed back towards home and ended up in Gig Harbor.  The Maritime Fest was going on and after cruising the bay, we were lucky enough to get a spot at the dock.  There were food tents set up, music playing and things for the kids to do.  They went down a huge slide a few times and touched sea life.  Of course we got ice cream and ate that while walking through the car show.  They also had the annual blessing of the boats.




It was a great day!
Enjoying every moment.
