SUNSET BEACH
My parents came over yesterday and the kids and I were supposed to go with them to a church event in Seal Beach at the Naval Weapons Armory Beach. We got to the base entrance and the guard directed us to another entry gate off of PCH. So, off we went following the directions he gave us. I was driving so I had to pay attention. lol...kind of hard for me lately. The funny thing is, when we called one of the other church memembers to find out WHERE exactly it was, they said it wasn't yesterday. It's supposed to be on a different day! That means the bulletin that the church printed and distributed to the entire congregation was WRONG!! OMG...lol...So, we just decided to go to the beach anyway, since we were already there.

My dad was starving!! lol We were expecting to pig out on filipino food! But, since there wasn't any to be found, we stopped by Harry's Grill and had the slamminest burgers and fries. We ate on the patio upstairs and just enjoyed the breeze and the view. Rich is now determind to have something like that deck when he buys his house. I don't blame him! It was perfect out there.

So, after our REALLY late lunch, we went to the beach...that is after we circled the parking area three times before we found someone leaving! It was packed yesterday....but not as bad as Laguna or Corona Del Mar. We broke out the cooler with our drinks and snacks, beach blanket, towels...etc and headed out to the shore. I could have stayed there until the sunset. I'm going to have to do that again. I haven't seen the sun set at a beach in forever!! Yeah, anyway, we all just kind of hung out enjoying the sun, the sea breeze and the sand. Anyway, it was a pretty good day.
