Long Beach,
Long Island

Maria and Cooper hooked up with Van, and the three carted out to Long Beach for some sun, surf, and Randi. Perfect weather. Breezy and warm. Sunny, but not too hot. Cooper snoozed under the umbrella, and we had a very low-key day at the shore.
Cooper loved the water. No, really - he LOVED the water. He would squeal and kick his legs in delight every time a wave came up to his feet. He was thrilled by the whole experience. We all agreed that he looked like he wanted to take off into the surf.
The most impressive portion of the day? We called Lori at work in the hopes we could possibly convince her to bolt early, jump on a train, and come out to meet us. AND SHE DID IT! Cool, huh? We picked her up from the train station after Randi gave us a tour of Long Beach - what a great little town! Cooper was ecstatic to see his mommy - and we were too. Our foursome (and a half) stopped in at The Saloon to grab a bite for dinner. And just our luck.... It was 'Half-Price Wine Bottle Night' at this particular establishment. How serendipitous. Such an easy day trip. Can't wait until we can do it again very soon.
Beach baby, beach baby, give me your hand
Give me something that I can remember
Just like before we can walk by the shore in the moonlight
Beach baby, beach baby, there on the sand
From July til the end of September
Surfin' was fun we'd be out in the sun every day
