On the last week of summer break we went to Lake Casitas and Pismo Beach (again). We camped with our friends, the Forrests at Lake Casitas. They were on the last leg of their almost 2 week trip and went home after that. It was the hottest week of the summer! At home we heard it was averaging around 105. One day it got up to 111! Where we were it was 100. It was hot enough! Luckily, we knew we were heading to Pismo where we'd get major relief at around 68 degrees.
The kids set up their duct tape craft table and made a few sales.
Devin lost his tooth the first night we were there. I used the same trick on him as I did on Avery a few years ago. I told him to hold it tight and show how he wiggles it and then I slapped his hand and out came the tooth! It shocks them, but then they are so proud. :-)

Playing around down by the dock
Trying their hands at fishing...surprise! No luck!

We went to Ventura beach one day to get some relief from the heat...only to be cold! But we'll take it!
The kids only lasted a very short time in the water because it was too cold
The opted to play catch and hang out
After 3 nights and 3 1/2 days, it was time to head to Pismo! At first they gave us a really small spot, but Kirk talked to them and they moved us to a very large one and we were very happy campers (literally!)
Behind the campground, right in front of the beach there is a runoff area. We tried to get Haley to swim in there, but all she would do was walk around. She doesn't know she is a water dog I guess.
A typical sight in our trailer.
Duct tape stand. They made a good amount again.

Swimming time. Always fun!
