Yes, to answer your question, I was upset because the dog (pictured in the first few photos) was on what he thought was a date of his own. Like the first two photos look straight out of a couples beach photo shoot … but with a dog. I was just trying to eat tacos and this dog was rizzing. Ok, I’ll stop giving the dog all the attention and get on with an incredible beach day/adventure that we had.

The day felt endless as we adventured along a new part of the coastline that we hadn’t seen together yet. Of course, the key to any good beach day started with stopping at a taco truck and picking up some fresh tacos. We packed them into 4-mile beach and set up on the beach blanket as we were accompanied by a friendly surfer’s dog. We soaked in the December sun as we watched the surfers paddle into quite a few fun ones along the point. After munching the tacos down, we left our stuff and took a nice long stroll down the beach as we traveled with sand piper’s, seagulls and the imminent threat of shore break getting our jeans wet.

Afterwards, we progressed north to stop near the famous Davenport beach swing. We set up shop along the bluff with the blanket and our Bible’s, ready to soak in a scenic bible study. I am always reminded how precious and incredible it is to do our Bible studies in God’s beautiful creation. It’s like we had unlocked another world of our own that other’s hadn’t quite realized existed. Growing closer to you with God at the center is something I will always cherish and enjoy.

After we concluded our bible study, we made our way out to Shark Fin Cove. Golden hour illuminated the cliffs and casted beautiful colors all around us. We followed a lone photographer out to a scenic point as we watched pelicans glide overhead, sweeping over the water and around the cliff’s alcoves. It was incredibly peaceful watching the sun set and seeing a small pod of dolphins or some other mysterious creature which we debated. I am still convinced it was the Loch Ness Monster. It was all nice and quiet until someone said enthusiastically, “Logan, I think it’s time for Ice Cream!”

That’s my cue, gotta go!
