Tonight's picture was taken in May of 2008. We took Mattie to Calvert Cliffs in Maryland. This is a special kind of nature park, because first you have to walk about a mile through the woods to get to the shore line. However, once you do though this is the surprise. A lovely little beach on the Chesapeake Bay. This beach is known for finding shark teeth fossils. Mattie and Peter would comb through the sand looking for hours. They were always successful! Every time Mattie came home with teeth, I would put them in a bag. The bag is quite full and I still have it after all these years.

When we got home this afternoon, we wrapped 10 out of the 12 raffle baskets. We are like an assembly line, as we have wrapped baskets now for ten years. We got it down to a science and I have concluded that staging the baskets (what I did yesterday) is much worse than wrapping them. But then again, I had Peter's help today. Otherwise, wrapping these things with just two hands is complicated and takes MUCH longer. It goes better with team work.
