So we attempted dinner on the beach.....

Living in Long Island sure does have its perks....the city is just a train ride away, you can get in the car and drive any direction and find sand, amazing pizza and bagels.  Last Friday night, we used our 4x4 pass and drove on Democrat Point (it's the far western end of Fire Island).   I think this is my favorite thing about Long Island, the driving on the beach.  It's way less crowded there, you can fish if you wish, swim, bbq, bonfire, etc. 

Well, the kids ended up playing around in the water while Mike attended to the grill.....the charcoal that comes presoaked, was in fact NOT lightable.  I was around seizing the opportunity to work on my photography of course.  I've been reading/watching tutorials left and right, and I wanted to put the knowledge I have to work.  Sure enough, I was pretty thrilled to see what I was able to do with some things.  

We ended up only staying for about an hour.   We were never able to get the grill going and we were hungry.  So we went back home and BBQ'd in our driveway like the classy folk do hehe.  I had an amazing time.  I always find the beach (especially when it's not so packed) to be a very nice, calming place.  I find serenity everytime we go over the Robert Moses bridges.

Until next time xo
