We drove to the National Seashore on Padre Island for a walk on the beach. The sand is pretty rough, so we didn’t drive far.
We went past the 4 wheel drive sign, but only a few miles. Then we just stopped and sat with the birds and water.

Nice calls and notes from the kids. We didn’t spend the day with them, but we thought about them and they thought about us. A good day. Happy Father’s Day to all.
