Friday

We're here! We finally made it to our little resort town in the Indiana Dunes.The walk to the beach was rustic with the wild lilacs and basil perfuming the air:The water was did-I-just-step-into-an-ice-bucket?-cold but it only deterred Collin briefly.

Beach Walk Manager: I see you've listed in your rental agreement that you have a 3 year-old and a 1 year-old in your party, Ma'am. Perhaps I can suggest a different, more child-freindly guest house which does not include a SPIRAL STAIRCASE OF DEATH for your family weekend getaway.
Mommy: Why thank you for alerting me. What wonderful customer service, Beach Walk Manager!
