Carolina Beach

Jon finally took a few days off, the third week in September, when his family came into town to stay at an ocean front condo in Carolina Beach. Brad borrowed a 4x4 truck from work and we took full advantage of being able to drive onto the North end of Carolina Beach. We went during the day and again in the evening, both times of the day there were beautiful! At the tip of the North end, a tide pool regularly forms and McKinley had a BLAST "swimming" around in it! He went full force with all his clothes on, which we had to remove, so he was baby skinny dipping in the tide pool! He even started swim-crawling a little which, I think, has to be the beginning of learning how to swim! It was so much fun watching as he got up, fell down, and repeated, for as long as we let him, and we let him for a while.
