Tom Roush and his boy John joined us at the beach yesterday.
Tom's a good friend and fellow film geek, having worked at Sony
Films in the 90s and "retired" to raise a fam in his home town. John
loves to play with Malaren because she's younger and he thinks he
can boss her around -- and is surprized when he can't. The boy loves
a challenge!

Also, let me know if these (and other) pics are too grainy, low-res,
or too bright/dark. click on druid8@aol.com and lemme know.

First, a 180-degree panorama of the beach, from facing directly east,
then south (Malaren), to directly west.

Cool. Didn't think I could do it with the (slight) fish-eye lens all cameras have.

Annie! New boardwalk at church beach. Yeah.

That's Tom, John, and Malaren (doing the boogy-woogy.

Malaren and John initially wrestled for place. Mal had him by size, but she kinda
gave up: look at the kid's shoulder muscles. He's only 6.

Plus, the kid has water legs. Mal don't.

Tom, showin' the kids how to hang ten. Fingers.

No, he didn't eat sand. (I lost $5 to John.)

So Malaren shows off her version of surfing.

Home Improvement. Two-car cave.

Ah, goggles! She looks VERY much like Peter here.

Again, let me know if these (and other) pics are too grainy, low-res,
or too bright/dark at druid8@aol.com

Oh, closing shot:
