On the beach -- they made a hot tub with pillow and foot tabs for the three kids.
Nathan with a little fish.
Nathan with his catch.
Abe with his fish.
Crabbing on the dock. This is very serious work as you can see. You hold a string with a piece of chicken on it in the water. Then you pull it up very slowly and put the net under the crab and then off to the stove to cook it. We had many meals of crabs. One day Abe, Jack and I ate nine crabs in the screened in porch for lunch. It was a feast.
Here is the king of all fishes caught in the lagoon by Abe. It is a sheep head fish. This is the first of two very large fish caught.
Mollie biking. She rides circles around the driveway for long periods of time.
We take walks and she leads on her bike.
Jack, Abe and Nathan went on a rental fishing boat for a day of fishing. They loved it and caught a number of fish. We ate two of them for dinner.
Bernie and Kathie Pennock came over for dinner. Bernie had a science experiment for Nathan. He showed how to make electricity. And then to use a switch to turn it on and off. The second picture shows the light bulb turned on.
Here is Nathan playing with it the next day. He was one happy boy.
Jack and Abe caught this fish in the lagoon. This was a good year for fishing. It is a black drum.
Every visit requires a trip to Hilton Head Ice cream. Abe is eating super man and it is blue. Mollie had birthday cake and did not like it. I always get mint chocolate chip.
6:30 AM The car is packed and they are ready for the long drive north. They will return in April for another HHI vacation.
