We went to Mount Baldy today. Years ago we used to climb the huge sand dune, then find everyone at the summit, leaping off into the deep sand. Nowadays you have to take a different trail to get to the beach, and you can't jump off the summit so much; the dune is eroding. Even so, kids had saucers they were using to glide down, and Jimmy and Josie had fun running down the slope. They both loved the beach; they're at a great age now where they simply occupy themselves with the waves and sand. We were there from about ten in the morning until after five--the kids should sleep well tonight!
