Pier fishing, the swimming pool, and of course a couple of visits to the beach were just part of the fun we all had out there.

Adam and Gung Gung hanging out at base camp

Out on Oskaloosa Pier for some periodically-rainy day pier fishing

Adam sets his net sights on one of the omnipresent coastal birds in violation of pier loitering laws
Even with the sound of the wind masking his approach, the bird remains one step ahead

Getting hands on with the squid bait

Adam shows Dad how to get the fish to bite

Gung Gung and Adam strike a quick pose before casting out for some fish
Gung Gung reels in the big catch

Tonight, we feast!


Adam and Gung Gung resting up back at the beach house

Going down the stairs pretty much "all by myself"

Hello from the beach!

Adam and Gung Gung get a look at the blue Gulf water

Mommy (and little brother in waiting) get in on the beach / ocean fun

A bucket that would be refilled many times over

It's all about the scoop technique
Time for some awesome wave jumping

Beach ball, prepare to be kicked!

ka-pow!

boom!

the kick so powerful, the force of it moves the oceans
the best athletes do their offseason training on the sand
Adam working on his soccer header technique, with a little gymnastics donkey kick at the end

Beach Day 2: The Shoveling

Powerful baby legs - honed by sandwalking

Color coordinated, totally cool

The obligatory family beach photo

Pool day!
mastering the backstroke (the kicking part at least)
big splashes, big speed

smile of a champion

Mommy and Gung Gung, poolside

with the shades on, kinda already looks like a steely-nerved combat zone pilot

At the airport, a quick photo before heading home (in a commercial plane - not pictured)
