The beach. again

Heather came out from Idaho so we took another trip to the beach due to the 105° weather.   So we headed across the Bay bridge over the Chesapeake.  We asked for "the Bay Game" at the toll and the lady there told us they had none to give out ever since the new governor came into office and got rid of them.  And that just triggered her into a spiel about how "He has GOT to go"*insert three snaps for emphasis*

For some reason we always drive way out of our way to go to Spence's Market in Dover.  It is a huge dirty flea market and with lots of home grown produce, Amish furniture, antiques, and other random junk.  Just tradition I guess.

The Amish also have a huge section where they sell the best food ever.  That is what we mainly get.  Ham, cheese, and rolls for our lunches at the beach.  Yum!

Once we got to the beach it started pouring but some of us went out anyway and had fun on the beach without any other people on it.

Down at the boardwalk is where all the food and shopping happens.  This ice cream shop has 300 different flavors.  Take that Ben and Jerry.  As a kid I always ordered Bubblegum ice cream which had whole pieces in it.  I have also tried the Bacon ice cream which is actually pretty good and has one of those sweet/salty tastes.  You really should click on this picture and read some of the flavors yourself.

Aaron loves the giant chess game.   Unfortunately he lost to this old man.

My favorite store at the beach: Bella Luna.  Very very very cute stuff. They had these salt and pepper shakers shaped as slugs!  Love it!  Didn't buy anything though.

Another favorite store is the Joke shop.  Candy cigarettes anyone?

fun fun!
