Again and more thanks for those who came out to skate last night. Mom had a lot of fun- so did I! The only thing I wish was that I'd paid more attention to the time, forced there to be that Metallica song I wanted, and warned everyone when it was the last song. OK- that's 3 things, actually. My brief feeling of nostalgia for quad skates was quickly supplanted by the preference for better bearings and padding in the boot. I'm sure if I had my own quad skates it'd be different.

By minor miracles, both mom and I woke up not tottering like old ladies. We packed up and were on the road by 9:30 to Hampden Beach. Yes, there are better beaches out there, but I adore the boardwalk and carnival atmosphere.
+planning for rain by bringing our jackets
+sitting, sketching, listening to Brandi Carile on shared headphones until it started raining
+having a plan: packed up the beach-sitting stuff, got jackets, walked down the surf in the rain
+shopping on the boardwalk while it was Really Raining: new sundress and skirt, shells for crafting, and standard boardwalk sugar
+fried seafood lunch during the worst of the rain and a very sweet waitress

Well, that appears to be all pluses. That's awesome.
