Last week we went camping at So Carlsbad State Beach. We try to go every other year or so. It was a lot of fun. The weather was pretty good (a little too cloudy, but better than being too hot), and the water was really warm most of the time. 
Troy Carr loaned the boys his surfboard. They all had a great time surfing, boogie boarding and body surfing.
It's funny that boys always want to chop the firewood. Eric is even really good at it.
Troy & Jason enjoying the fire.
Would it be a normal day without Troy bleeding? Let's just say his bike needed a little tweeking after this episode.
The best day there was Wednesday. Troy, Jason & Eric went to bodysurf. David and I watched from the campsite. We saw that there were dolphins playing in the waves, so we showed them. They swam out as fast as they could. Troy & Jason got out where the dolphins were and were swimming with them. They couldn't get any closer than about 10 feet, but they had a lot of fun. We could see in the swells Troy and a dolphin right next to each other. The dolphin surfed the wave, they jumped back over after it was breaking. The dolphins got a little nervous about the boys trying to get closer, so they swam quite a ways north. The boys followed and swam with them some more. They were exhausted when they got out. Eric couldn't keep up with any of them, so he just bodysurfed and enjoyed his time. It was really awesome to watch.
We rented a motorhome. It was waaaaay better than tent camping, for sure!!
The view from the rear motorhome window. Not too bad waking up to this!

Sounds like a really fun trip. One of these days I would like to rent a motor home instead of always tent camping. Is Jason taller than Troy, or is just the way the picture makes it look? I have never really noticed before.
Jason is taller than Troy. It really bums Troy out, too!
Wow, swimming with dolphins - that's so cool!!
The dolphin experience sounds so neat :)
