High Winds, Big Waves

I read in the paper this morning that big waves were expected at the beach today, so I decided to take the kids down there to see them after lunch. I had no idea it was going to be so windy. I have never seen it this windy at the beach before. Sand was blowing everywhere! We didn’t stay very long because it was pretty miserable with all the blowing sand. The waves were big. Some of them were half-way up to the height the pier. If it hadn’t been so windy, I would have taken the kids for a walk on the pier. Instead, we left and went by 7-11 for slurpees.
