Misquamicut

Carolyn and I arrived at the beach around mid-morning after a leisurely drive down through Sterling, Voluntown, and North Stonington via routes 49 and 201. We had our beach chairs, a new beach umbrella (the first we've ever had), a small cooler, blanket, and a bag of books. It was sunny, breezy and comfortable- lots of sun and surf and not too many people. We alternately chatted and read, took a walk, got some salads for lunch, read some more, and I took a little nap on the blanket in the sun in the later afternoon.
