The Great Outdoors

First thing this morning we headed to the river to do a little fishing.  
 Beckett got right to work.
 The boys love exploring Daddy's tackle box and always want something new on their line.
 Today was Pierce's first time with his new fishing pole he got for Christmas from Uncle Neal and Auntie Tera. 
 Daddy gave Pierce some pointers,
but he got quite frustrated that he could not cast like big brother, Beckett. 
 He decided throwing rocks was more his speed. 
 This afternoon we headed to Chetco Point to check out the whale that had washed up last June.  Here is the blog entry from that day: http://lundesmodernlife.blogspot.com/2013/06/look-what-washed-up-on-beach.html
We found remains of the whale scattered along the beach.
 This was the coolest one we discovered.
 Then we did a little exploring in the tide pools, which is always Beckett's favorite.

 We found lots of fun shells in the tide pools and the boys enjoyed watching the marine life.

 What a surprise we had when we got home!  We thought we had checked all the shells for creatures, but apparently not good enough. 
 Beckett quickly names the hermit crab "Bug" and wanted to keep him.  Look at the little habitat Daddy and Beckett made.
