It's been years and years...decades, really, since I've been at Magnolia Beach. I was a teenager...probably in my early teens...so, at least 50 years ago. [Gasp!] But, Carolyn had talked to a friend who had been there recently and she wanted to take her family there. So, earlier this month we arrived at Port Alto on Thursday so that we could spend Friday at Magnolia Beach.
As usual, when we're on bay-time, we don't get a big jump on the day, so it was probably close to eleven before we got to Magnolia Beach. Brent parked the car near a restroom facility and then started transferring all our "stuff" to the beach. We brought a gazebo-type tent, some beach chairs, water toys, sand toys, (yes! there's real sand on that beach!), towels, a cooler full of snacks, lunch, and drinks, and probably other items that I'm forgetting. There are lots of covered tables off the beach, in case you don't have an umbrella or gazebo. They even have grills and trash bins at each table.

| As soon as we got the wagon on the ground, Jax climbed in and almost went to sleep. |
|
 |
| It must have been close to high noon, judging from the shade cast by the gazebo. |
 |
| Busy bees, playing in the sand. |

| Time for a little snack. |
 |
| Look at this long stretch of beach! |
 |
| The kids enjoyed being buried in the sand. |
 |
| Jax was very cooperative during the process. |
It was a very nice outing...one that I hope we do again. Maybe we can get the Garners' to come with us.
