We chose to #OptOutside

This long weekend was perfect! On Thursday we spent the day making too much food for the 6 people at the table. We had everything from tomato tatin to turkey to 4 kinds of pies. We enjoyed our meal later in the day so that my sister who had to work could join in. Obviously we needed to work off all the food we ate so we planned two adventures. 

On Friday Greg and I bundled up packed our day-pack and ventured to Crane Beach. The Trustees of Reservations was offering free entry to Crane Beach today which was great even though we are members. We parked our car and switched from sneakers to hiking boots. I wish my gators came before today but I would just have to live with sand in my boots. We hiked through the forest, the sand dunes, and finally the beach. There is so much beauty to see here. Overall we were there about 1.5 hours and hiked about 4 miles. 

Saturday morning we decided Fred needed an adventure too. We packed up our day-pack for the three of us and headed to Halibut Point State Park and Reservation. We parked the car and made our way over to the trail. Fred was thrilled and so were we. Halibut Point State Park is beautiful. We walked along the quarry path and then proceeded to head down the other trails. There were so many picturesque spots to stop and enjoy! We spent about an hour here walked a total of 3 miles.
